Amid searing temperatures across vast swathes of India, the India Meteorological Department (IMD)<\/a> has predicted that the southwest monsoon will arrive a few days late. This is at a time when the country is desperately hoping for a normal rainy season this year to relieve farm distress and revive growth in Asia\u2019s fastest growing economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe statistical model forecast suggests that the monsoon onset over Kerala in this year is likely to be slightly delayed,\u201d the IMD said in a statement<\/a> on Sunday. \u201cThe southwest monsoon is likely to set over Kerala on June 7 with a model error of \u00b1 4 days.\u201d<\/p>\n

The onset of the southwest monsoon over Kerala signals the beginning of the rainy season over South Asia. The June to September season normally starts on June 1. The Met department had said in its April 12 forecast that the monsoon will be 106% of the 50-year average rainfall, which would make 2016 the best season since 1994.<\/p>\n

Two successive years of scanty showers and severe drought has caused acute distress in more than 250 of 600-odd districts across 11 states. About 330 million people have been affected.  The change in rainfall pattern, partially due to climate change, has added to the crisis.<\/p>\n

A study by Indian industry lobby group Assocham<\/a> has indicated that the drought may have cost the country some INR 6.5 trillion (USD 97 billion). Nearly two-thirds of India\u2019s farms are irrigated only by rain, and half its population depend directly on agriculture, though the farm sector accounts for only about 15% of GDP. Drought would create inflationary pressures, making food management a challenge for policymakers, the report said.<\/p>\n

Hopeful predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

The private forecaster Skymet has backed up the Met department\u2019s hopeful monsoon prediction. \u201cEl Ni\u00f1o is on decline now and is likely to become neutral sometime around June. This will lead to better monsoon conditions and we expect Monsoon 2016 to end up above normal,\u201d Skymet said in a statement on May 12.<\/a> It expects the onset of monsoon over Kerala by May 30.<\/p>\n

Climate change plays a big role in the increased frequency of powerful El Ni\u00f1o events, oceanographers and climatologists say<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Besides cheering farmers, a normal monsoon will replenish reservoirs and mitigate a crippling water shortage in most parts of the country. India\u2019s main reservoirs hold merely 19% of their live storage capacity, which is 37% less water compared with a year ago, the Central Water Commission said in its latest weekly update<\/a> on May 12. The stored water has been rapidly declining in recent months.<\/p>\n

Economic revival<\/strong><\/p>\n

Better monsoon rains this year will improve India\u2019s economic growth rate, the National Council of Applied Economic Research said on May 14. It is likely to have \u201ca positive impact on agriculture and thereby the economy,” the state-funded think-tank said<\/a> in its Quarterly Review of the Economy.<\/p>\n

Many economists have already factored normal rainfall into their forecasts, according to Bloomberg<\/a>, a provider of financial data. The median of 32 economists surveyed by Bloomberg predicted 7.7% growth in the year to March 31, compared with the official projection of 7.75%.<\/p>\n

\"Date<\/a><\/p>\n

If the IMD\u2019s prediction proves correct, India\u2019s economy could grow by 8-8.5% in 2016-17, finance minister Arun Jaitley told investors<\/a> in New York on April 19. \u201cA higher number” for GDP growth is possible this year if the monsoon is strong, Anubhuti Sahay, head of South Asia economic research at Standard Chartered, a British bank with substantial presence in India, told Bloomberg. The expansion might be weaker than expected if rains disappoint or global growth slows down, she said.<\/a><\/p>\n

Leaning on the monsoon <\/strong><\/p>\n

A healthy monsoon is critical for India because over 40% of the food production in the country depends on adequate and timely showers. The southwest monsoon that ends in September accounts for 80% of the annual rainfall. A good harvest in autumn thus strengthens rural consumption, providing a boost to the overall economy.<\/p>\n

Farm productivity and strategic investment in agriculture have stagnated across India in recent decades. NITI Aayog<\/a>, the government\u2019s think-tank, points to several important aspects of agriculture that need immediate attention to bring economic advantages to millions of farm families. The output per hectare, which is a common measure of agricultural productivity, remains low for many crops when compared with many other countries, it said in a December 16 paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Farmers on an average do not get remunerative prices due to limited reach of the minimum support prices, the rate at with the government buys food grains, and an agricultural marketing system that delivers only a small fraction of the final price to the actual farmer, the study said. Despite recognising the main problems, little has been done to revitalise the Indian farm sector.<\/p>\n

The importance of rainfall to India\u2019s prospects underlines the government\u2019s failure to address inadequate public investment in agriculture, according to Kunal Kundu, India economist at Societe Generale SA, a French bank. Despite overall optimism, he expects growth to slow down to 7.3% from an estimated 7.5% last year on weak farm output. \u201cA normal monsoon season will surely come as a relief but expecting a magical result is too ambitious,\u201d Kundu wrote in an April 26 note<\/a>. \u201cWhen policymakers look up to the sky, it indicates policy failure.\u201d<\/p>\n
