The rainfall deficit is likely to impact agricultural activities, particularly in rain-fed areas of Uttar Pradesh. Crops such as paddy, maize, and pulses, which rely heavily on monsoon rains, may face stress due to insufficient water availability. Districts like Ayodhya, Amethi, and Kushinagar, which recorded deficits exceeding 60%, are at higher risk of reduced agricultural yields. Additionally, the uneven distribution of rainfall could lead to localised water scarcity in some areas while others may experience temporary waterlogging due to isolated heavy rains.
