- • Utilize aerators to maintain dissolved oxygen levels above 5 mg/L, especially at night when oxygen levels may drop.
- • Regularly test pH levels, keeping them within the range of 6.0 to 7.5 to minimize stress on the fish.
- • Raise dykes so they are at least 0.6 meters above the water level to prepare for potential flooding caused by winter storms.

Ensure optimum moisture level under dry bed condition and sum-merge the wet bed with shallow level of water for proper establishment and growth of nursery. | \n \n\n \n \n \n\n | \n | \nLand Preparation/ Transplanting | \n\n\n- - Farmers are advised to keep the seedlings free from weeds.
\n- - Farmers are advised to start preparation of land for transplanting of rice seedlings in areas, where seedlings are approaching near 4-6 leaf stage. However, where seedlings are ready, farmers are advised to go for transplanting of rice crop. Plant 2-3 seedlings per hill at 3 to 5 cm deep in the soil.
\n \n* Suggest transplanting of paddy during cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening to avoid any risk to human health due to heat wave. \n | \n \n\n| Maize (Intermediate zone) | \nSowing | \n | \n\n\n- - Farmers of intermediate areas are advised to undertake sowing of maize crop after ensuring optimum moisture in the soil for sowing.
\n \n* Sowing should be done during cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late evening to avoid any risk to human health due to heat wave. \n | \n \n\n| Vegetative/ Knee high Stage | \nIntercultural operation | \n\n\n- - Mainly dry weather conditions likely to prevail for next 5 days in many parts of the district, farmers of temperate areas are advised to carry out intercultural operations in maize crop to maintain adequate soil moisture and support plant growth.
\n \n | \n \n\n | \n | \nFertilizer application | \n\n\n- - Farmers of temperate areas are advised to apply Ist top dressing of urea after ensuring appropriate moisture in the soil.

\n \n | \n \n\n| Live stock (Dairy animals, sheep and goats) | \n | \nCare/Feed supplement | \n\n\n- - Amid rise in temperature, farmers are advised to protect the animal during heat wave conditions, make provision to provide fresh clean and cool drinking water to the animal along with green grass.
\n- - Keep the animals in shade especially between 11 am to 4 pm.
\n- - Mineral mixture (Agrimin forte @ 40 gm per day) should be supplemented in the diet of dairy animals particularly pregnant ones.
\n- - Farmers are advised to keep proper ventilation and hygiene in the cattle sheds.
\n- - Farmers are advised to include top feeds i.e. leaves of jamun, guava etc. in the diet of small ruminants to decline the parasitic load.
\n- - Farmers are advised to go for vaccination for viral diseases in cattles before onset of rainy season.
\n \n | \n \n\n| Poultry | \n | \nCare/Feed supplement | \n\n\n- - Chicks should be supplemented with balanced ration to prevent occurrence of nutritionally deficient diseases.
\n- - Brooder houses for newly born should be well ventilated, rain proof and protected from predators.
\n- - Disinfectant tray should be kept at entrance of the poultry house to prevent occurrence of infectious diseases.
\n- - Farmers are advised to keep improved breeds of Backyard poultry i.e. Vanraja, chabro to supplement the daily income.

+| Disease management |
+
+
+- - Strong surface winds likely to be expected on coming days. Farmers are advised to provide mechanical support in young plants of tomato and cucurbits for better crop stand and to avoid losses from gusty winds.
+- - There may be chance of bacterial wilt in tomato, brinjal, chilli and cucurbits due to possibility of humid weather conditions. If attack of bacterial wilt is observed, apply Streptocyclin Sulphate @ 1.0 gm/10 liter of water and repeat the spray at the time of flowering during clear/dry weather conditions.
+
+ |
+
+
+| Irrigation |
+
+
+- - This leads to soil moisture stress in vegetable crops. Farmers are advised to apply light and frequent irrigation to vegetable crops based on requirement.

(Summer
Vegetables) | \nVegetative Stage | \nIntercultural operations | \n- The forecast indicates rain and thundershowers for the next five days. Farmers are advised to postpone any intercultural operations in vegetable crops to avoid potential damage to the crops and reduced effectiveness of the operations. | \n \n\n| Pruning & Staking | \n- Strong surface winds likely to be expected at isolated places over the district. Farmers are advised to provide mechanical support in young plants of tomato and cucurbits for better crop stand and to avoid losses from gusty winds.
- Farmers are advised to remove side shoots so that plants may use all its food and energy to develop its fruits. | \n \n\n| Disease management | \n- There may be chance of bacterial wilt in tomato, brinjal, chilli and cucurbits due to possibility of humid weather conditions. If attack of bacterial wilt is observed, apply Streptocyclin Sulphate @ 1.0 gm/10 liter of water and repeat the spray at the time of flowering during clear/dry weather conditions. | \n \n\n| Drainage | \n- In case of heavy rainfall, farmers are advised to make proper arrangement to drain out excess water from vegetable fields. | \n \n\nHorticulture
(Stone Fruits
& Nut Fruits) | \n | \nCare/Staking | \n- Young fruit plants may be provided staking to avoid damage from adverse weather conditions.
- Remove all water/stock sprouts from the plant emerging from stem up to a height of 30 cm from ground level.
- Remove tying material from bud/graft union carefully.
- Keep the orchards clean from weeds/unwanted plants.
- Install insect traps such as light trap, sticky traps and pheromones traps to check insect-pest attack.
- Use temporary shade nets to protect the fruit plants from high temperatures.
- Gusty winds likely to be expected at isolated places over the district. Farmers are advised to undertake staking in newly planted orchards to provide support against strong winds. | \n \n\nMilky
Mushroom | \n | \n | \n- Farmers are advised for cultivation of Calocybe indica (Milky mushroom).
- Maintain a clean environment to prevent contamination.
- Ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
- Farmers are advised to carefully manage temperature and humidity throughout the cultivation cycle. | \n \n\n| Apiculture | \n | \nCare /Feed supplement | \n- Keeping in view the present weather conditions, farmers are advised to shift the honey bee colonies towards shady conditions or place them under open straw huts.
- Bees need water to dilute honey and to cool the hives during hot weather conditions. Farmers are advised to keep water trough filled with coarse gravel near the hive. It helps bees to spend more time in collecting nectar and less time for water collection.
- Provide proper ventilation by slightly raising the brood chamber. Make sure that bees do not pass through the ventilation otherwise robbing may be induced.
- For protection of ants put the legs of apiary into water so that ants could not attack apiary. | \n \n\nFisheries
(Carp fish
culture) | \nYearlings/fish
seed | \n | \n- Avoid excessive manuring and feeding which can lead to oxygen depletion during cloudy weather.
- Water should not drain directly into the pond. It should be passed through a bed of sand or filter mesh before draining.
- Farmers should apply the screen/netting cloth on outlets/overflows, so that the fish livestock present in the fish pond may not escape out during | \n \n \n \n \n\n | \n | \n | \nthe soil. | \n \n\nVegetables

Farmers are advised to provide mechanical support in young plants of tomato and cucurbits for better crop stand and to avoid losses from gusty winds.
- Farmers are advised to remove side shoots so that plants may use all its food and energy to develop its fruits. | \n \n\n| Disease management | \n- There may be chance of bacterial wilt in tomato, brinjal, chilli and cucurbits due to possibility of humid weather conditions. If attack of bacterial wilt is observed, apply Streptocyclin Sulphate @ 1.0 gm/10 liter of water and repeat the spray at the time of flowering during clear/dry weather conditions. | \n \n\n| Drainage | \n- In case of heavy rainfall, farmers are advised to make proper arrangement to drain out excess water from vegetable fields. | \n \n\nHorticulture
(Stone Fruits
& Nut Fruits) | \n | \nCare/Staking | \n- Young fruit plants may be provided staking to avoid damage from adverse weather conditions.
- Remove all water/stock sprouts from the plant emerging from stem up to a height of 30 cm from ground level.
- Remove tying material from bud/graft union carefully.
- Keep the orchards clean from weeds/unwanted plants.
- Install insect traps such as light trap, sticky traps and pheromones traps to check insect-pest attack.
- Use temporary shade nets to protect the fruit plants from high temperatures.
- Gusty winds likely to be expected at isolated places over the district. Farmers are advised to undertake staking in newly planted orchards to provide support against strong winds. | \n \n\nMilky
Mushroom | \n | \n | \n- Farmers are advised for cultivation of Calocybe indica (Milky mushroom).
- Maintain a clean environment to prevent contamination.
- Ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
- Farmers are advised to carefully manage temperature and humidity throughout the cultivation cycle. | \n \n\n| Apiculture | \n | \nCare /Feed supplement | \n- Keeping in view the present weather conditions, farmers are advised to shift the honey bee colonies towards shady conditions or place them under open straw huts.
- Bees need water to dilute honey and to cool the hives during hot weather conditions. Farmers are advised to keep water trough filled with coarse gravel near the hive. It helps bees to spend more time in collecting nectar and less time for water collection.
- Provide proper ventilation by slightly raising the brood chamber. Make sure that bees do not pass through the ventilation otherwise robbing may be induced.
- For protection of ants put the legs of apiary into water so that ants could not attack apiary. | \n \n\nFisheries
(Carp fish
culture) | \nYearlings/fish
seed | \n | \n- Avoid excessive manuring and feeding which can lead to oxygen depletion during cloudy weather.
- Water should not drain directly into the pond. It should be passed through a bed of sand or filter mesh before draining.
- Farmers should apply the screen/netting cloth on outlets/overflows, so that the fish livestock present in the fish pond may not escape out during | \n \n \n \n \n\n | \n | \n | \nexcessive rains. | \n \n\nLive stock

+
+
+- • For prevention of mastitis keep proper and clean bedding material and ensure the cleanliness of udder and the animal in general in addition the hygiene of the milker should also be considered.
+- • Feed extra mineral supplements and concentrates to avoid the occurrence of metabolic/production/ deficiency diseases in the dairy animals. However in the late gestation period, the feeding of calcium should be restricted to avoid the chances of milk fever.
+- • Regular change in the bedding material should be made to avoid dampness and to keep the animal neat and clean.
+- • Deworming if pending mainly against roundworms should be done at the earliest on bright sunny days early in the morning.
+- • Special care should be taken to prevent the animals against bloat or tympany due to the intake of fresh and lush early spring green grass or fodder. In case of bloat the emergency treatment should be giving edible oil/mineral oil orally or bloatosil and in extreme cases trocarization should be done to relieve the excess gases of rumen.
+- • Prophylactic and preventive measures should be taken against ecto-parasites like ticks and against vectors and flies.
+- • Animals should be given proper shelter, shade and fresh water to minimize the chances of heat/thermal stress. Grazing time should be increased but should be done in the cooler parts of the day minimizing the mid-day scorching heat.

+- For prevention of mastitis keep proper and clean bedding material and ensure the cleanliness of udder and the animal in general in addition the hygiene of the milker should also be considered.
+- Feed extra mineral supplements and concentrates to avoid the occurrence of metabolic/production/deficiency diseases in the dairy animals. However in the late gestation period, the feeding of calcium should be restricted to avoid the chances of milk fever.
+- Regular change in the bedding material should be made to avoid dampness and to keep the animal neat and clean and ensure that the sheds receive enough sunlight during the day to prevent dampness and to assist the cleaning process.
+- Deworming with broad spectrum anthelmintics should be done at the earliest on bright sunny days early in the morning.
+- Special care should be taken to prevent the animals against bloat or tympany due to the intake of fresh and lush early spring green grass or fodder. In case of bloat the emergency treatment should be giving edible oil/mineral oil orally or bloatosil and in extreme cases trocarization should be done to relieve the excess gases of rumen.
+- Prophylactic and preventive measures should be taken against ecto-parasites like ticks and against vectors and flies.
+- Animals should be given proper shelter, shade and fresh water to minimize the chances of heat/thermal stress. Grazing time should be increased and ensure about 6-8 hours of daily grazing but should be done in the cooler parts of the day minimizing the mid-day scorching heat.

+- • For trout, maintain a stocking density of 8-12 kg per cubic meter, and for carp, restrict the density to 1.5 fish per square meter of pond surface.
+- • Reduce feeding by 40-50% and only provide food when water temperature exceeds 10°C, preferably around midday.
+- • Ensure the pond depth is at least 1.8 meters to promote temperature stability.
+- • Continuously monitor water temperatures and keep it above 8°C, as fish metabolism slows during winter.
+- • Utilize aerators to maintain dissolved oxygen levels above 5 mg/L, especially at night when oxygen levels may drop.
+- • Regularly test pH levels, keeping them within the range of 6.0 to 7.5 to minimize stress on the fish.
+- • Raise dykes so they are at least 0.6 meters above the water level to prepare for potential flooding caused by winter storms.
