3. SATELLITE BASED VEGITATION STATUS ASSESSMENT OVER
THE STATE
The agriculture condition has been monitored at hobli / taluk / district level using coarse
resolution (1.1 km) NOAA AVHRR data and AWiFS / WiFS data for the entire State.
Time composite NDVI images are generated for June, July, August, September, October,
November and December months separately for the agricultural area of the State. The NDVI image
generated at the end of each month is given in Fig.3.1 to 3.5.
3.1 Month wise status assessment:
June 2015:
The Karnataka State compared to a normal year (2010) NDVI and NDWI values were lower
due to deficit rainfall. This can be seen in NDVI & NDWI deviation images. Deficit or Scanty
rainfall in most of the districts of Karnataka resulted in lower Area Favorable for Crop Sowing
(AFCS) in June 2015.
District-wise analysis in the state, by the end of June 2015, indicated “Normal” agricultural
situation in 16 districts. The agricultural situation has been categorized as “Watch” in 14 districts
and as “Alert” in nil districts. List of districts under different agricultural situation is presented
below and maps are shown Fig.3.1:
Normal Bangalore (Rural), Bangalore (Urban), Belgaum, Bidar, Chamarajanagara,

(16 districts) Chikmagaur, D. Kannada, Hassan, Kodagu, Mandya, Mysore, Ramanagara,
Shimoga, Tumkur, Udupi and U. Kannada

(14 districts) Chitrdurga, Gadag, Haveri, Kolar, Koppal, Mandya, Mysore, Raichur,
Ramanagara, Tumkur and Yadgir.
Alert NIL
Talukwise analysis in the State, by the end of June 2015, indicated Normal agricultural situation in
91 taluks in 16 districts, categorised under watch category in 85 taluks in 14 districts.
Compared to this, in 2013 by the end of the of June month, 16 districts were in Normal and 14
districts were in Watch category and nil districts in Alert Category. This shows that this year the
agricultural situation is same compared to previous year due to late onset and progress of monsoon,
followed by deficient/scanty rainfall.
The overall situation of the State remains in Watch condition in the month of June. Since, sowing
generally does not start in some parts of the State in June, it is expected that if there is a revival
monsoon during July, the agricultural situation may improve.
53
July 2015:
During July 2015, Karnataka state received Excess to Normal rainfall in middle part of
Karnataka while other parts received Deficit rainfall. Vegetation and moisture conditions are good in
south interior part while rest have comparatively poor vegetation and moisture condition.
District-wise analysis in the state, by the end of July 2015, indicated “Normal” agricultural situation
in 11 districts. The agricultural situation has been categorized as “Watch” in 17 districts and as
“Alert” in 2 districts. Agricultural situation upto july 2015 given below and maps are shown fig.3.2.

Talukwise analysis in the State, by the end of July 2015, indicated Normal agricultural situation in
66 taluks in 11 districts, categorised under watch category in 98 taluks in 17 districts and 10 taluks
in 2 districts are under Alert Category.This shows that this year the agricultural situation is poorer
than previous year due to late onset and progress of monsoon, followed by deficit rainfall
The overall situation of the State remains in Watch/Alert condition in the month of July. However,
with the revival of monsoon in 2nd fortnight of July, sowing has started in most parts of the country
and it is expected that condition may be much better during August.
August 2015:
During August 2015, Karnataka State received excess to normal rainfall in middle part of
Karnataka while other parts received deficit rainfall. Vegetation and moisture conditions were good
in south interior part while north interior Karnataka had comparatively poorer vegetation and
moisture condition. The overall situation has improved from july to august month.
District-wise analysis in the state, by the end of August 2015, indicated “Normal”
agricultural situation in 20 districts. The agricultural situation has been categorized as “Watch” in 7
districts and as “Alert” in 3 districts. Agricultural situation upto August 2015 given below and
maps are shown fig.3.3.

in 116 taluks in 20 districts, categorised under watch category in 46 taluks in 7 districts and 14
taluks in 3 districts are under Alert Category.
54
The overall situation of the country remains in Normal/Watch condition in the month of August,
except few districts. With the revival of monsoon in 2nd fortnight of July and good rains in major
part of the State during August, the agricultural situation in the country has improved.
September 2015:
During September 2013, NDVI, an indicator of agriculture vegetation status, has significantly
improved in some parts of the State, reflecting the progression of Kharif crops. Reduced greenness
signifying delayed crop sowing or poor crop growth is evident in North Interior Karnataka districts.
State received mostly normal to excess rainfall except in few districts. Vegetation and moisture
conditions were good in south interior part while north interior Karnataka had comparatively poorer
vegetation and moisture condition. Districtwise analysis in the State by end of September 2015 given
below and maps are shown in fig.4:

Mild (3 districts) Bidar, Gulbarga and Kolar
Moderate (1 districts) Chikkaballapura
In Karnataka, 6 taluks are categorized under “Moderate Agricultural drought” class following by
19 taluks under “Mild Agricultural drought” class and 151 taluks under “Normal” Class. The
taluks under Moderate drought are distributed all over the State except Coastal districts.
Progression of NDVI during October needs to be observed particularly over the late sowing districts
with long duration crops.
The overall situation of the State remains in Normal/Watch condition in the month of September
except few districts
October 2015:
During October 2015, the agriculture situation has not worsened from September to October
in the State. The trends of different crop indices are normal in many parts of Karnataka districts
indicating progressive improvement in agriculture situation from June. At the end of October Month,
4 taluks are categorised under “Moderate Agricultural drought” class followed by 27 taluks under
“Mild agricultural drought” class and 145 taluks under “Normal” class. Poor crop growth in parts
of the State may results in the reduction of crop yield.
Moderate” category taluks are characterised by either delayed sowing time or reduced crop sown
area or poor greenness of agricultural vegetation or lack of adequate irrigation infra-structure or all of
them. There may not be improvement to the extent of normal agricultural situation in these districts in
subsequent fortnights.
“Mild” category taluks are characterised by slightly reduced crop sown area or slightly reduced
greenness of crops, with scope for significant improvement in subsequent fortnights.

4. WATER BALANCE METHODOLOGY FOR MONITORING OF
DROUGHT PERIODS AND THEIR SEVERITIES DURING
AGRICULTURAL GROWING SEASON
The understanding of agricultural drought pattern requires not only analysis of rainfall
records but also adequacy of soil moisture patterns and deficiencies of the same during the crop
growing season of a particular year or between different years. It is more realistic to adopt a suitable
method of water budgeting and deal with the soil moisture available in a crop growing season.
Drought occurs when there is insufficient moisture in the root zone of the crop. Where direct
measurement of soil moisture and its determination are not possible, the concept of potential evapo-
transpiration and the water budgeting provide an indirect method for determining actual evapo-
transpiration (AE) and changes in soil moisture.
Moisture adequacy Index :
The ratio AE / PE expressed in percentage known as Moisture Adequacy Index (MAI) is a

useful index for scientific crop planning and drought monitoring. The systems analysis approach
using the distribution of Moisture Adequacy Index with in crop growing season would help in
determining optimum times for sowing, selection of suitable crop varieties and other cultural
operations for specific regions.
Decrease of MAI form 100% would indicate soil moisture stress conditions experienced by
the crops. Up to MAI value of 75%, there would be hardly any moisture stress. So period with MAI
>75% can be denoted as humid period. Many dry land crops would experience only slight moisture
stress even up to MAI of 50%. So period for which MAI is 50% or above is considered as
agricultural growing season. When MAI is between 25% and 50% crops would experience only
moderate drought conditions. So some of the drought resistant crops like Jowar, Ragi, Bajra, Minor
millets, Groundnut, Sunflower and Pulses etc., would be able to withstand such droughts for a
limited period. But when MAI becomes less than 25% severe drought would set in. The results of
moisture adequacy index studies at the end of the South-West Monsoon season are presented in the
figures 4.1.
The Salient findings are as follows :
At the end of September 2015, due to Normal rainfall over major parts of the state and the
29% of the area is falling under moderate condition and remaining 61% of the geographical area is
falling under normal agriculturally favorable to Humid condition.
62
63
Aridity Index Anomaly :
The water deficiency or drought over a station is also estimated on the basis of the difference
between actual and normal values of aridity index in respect of the period concerned which is
generally called the anomaly of aridity index.
The results of aridity index anomaly studies at the end of the season is presented in fig. 4.2
The Salient findings are as follows :
At the end of September 2015, due to Normal rainfall over major parts of the state and the
40% of the area is falling under moderate to severe deficit condition. and remaining 60% of the
geographical area is falling under normal agriculturally favorable condition.
