Farmer Gopal Kafle of Rampur Municipality-9, Lamdikhola breathed a sigh of relief after the rain fell on Sunday morning. He was worried because all the fields were barren because the sky did not rain. Bad seeds are old but not watered. He said that this is the reason why he is worried day and night.

 'Most of the villages have to plant fields full of sky water,' he said, 'water has not grown in the small streams.' According to

Kafle, even now, 95 percent of the planting has not been done in Tari field. In Lamdikhola area, there are more than 2,000 plantations that depend on sky water. Tari field should be planted in full water. "Some of the water falling from the sky has to be covered and planted," he said, "the paddy of such fields is dependent on the water of the sky." Anil Kafle of the village has also reached the field with cough and cold. But he said that he did not get water suitable for planting except for two or three beds. "The ground has been soaked by the rain that has fallen for some time in the morning," he said, "I have started planting it as it has flowed a little in the hole." According to him, he was worried that he would not be able to plant rice this year if there was no rain from the sky. Even in three farming fields, paddy could not be planted this year . Since there is no water in the Lamdi river, many people have not been able to plant paddy. "We didn't expect such a drought," he said, "The rain has brought relief to the farmers." Even those who planted fields had to irrigate the fields using pumpsets and motors.

Most of the fields including Bajgouda of Jagbadi, the lower part of Simalvanjyang, Kainpani of Majkot, Gundanda, Angatari, Banstari, Lamdikhola, Bolkhet, Mantahakhola are planted under sky water. According to President Rana, most of the fields have been bad for two months. Due to the lack of hand tractors, the farmers have covered the fields on Sunday and started planting by watering the fields. He said that due to the forecast of rain for three days, tari has also been planted in the fields. 

Head of Rampur Municipality Agriculture Branch Narayan Prasad Gayre said that in various places of wards No. 5, 6, 7, 8 of Rampur Municipality, planting has started in the fields due to Sunday's rain. According to him, rain has soaked the fields and the water has started to stagnate. "Now even with a little rain, it has become easy to get rid of weeds," he said, "even the yellowed rice that has been planted has been relieved after it rained from the sky."

As there was no rain from the sky, planting could not be done not only in Madhesh but also in the Rampur district known as the granary of Palpa . Not only within the Rampur municipality area, but also in Gejha, Lamdikhola, Bhujat, Nisardi, Wardale, Rambha's Hungi fields have yet to be planted  was . Farmer Ekdev Gautam said that even the planted paddy has broken and the seedlings are dying. According to the head of agriculture branch, Gayre, out of the 34,000 paddy fields in Rampur municipality, which is known as the granary area, about 25 percent of the fields are still barren.

He said that in the fields where the roots split and planted after the sky rains, the planting was not done as expected. The saplings that were planted with the rains of June were also dry. Such people are relieved. After not getting water, they started a campaign to save by driving a motor . Farmers complain that they are not able to use the Kaligandaki river nearby. At the beginning, rice planting was done in the banks of rivers, kholsa and dhawa in the district. Among the rice farming areas, all fields do not have river irrigation facilities. The saplings planted in the settlements above the river bank where rice is grown in the sky have dried up. 

There is a canal under the Rampur Branch Irrigation Scheme (Nisdikhola) in the Rampur Municipality area. But the canal cannot cover all the fields . Water resources have not increased in Bahkhola, Turundikhola . There is a problem because the source is not increasing due to the lack of rainfall in the field of cultivation. The river and Kaligandaki river flowed in the lower part of the farm . But due to no rain from the sky, the fields which are considered to be granaries are still barren . In the district, 8 thousand 210 hectares of land has been cultivated annually. 60 percent of the paddy fields do not have river irrigation facilities. Agricultural Gyan Kendra said that the farmers are angry that they have released the data that there is a lot of rice planting in Hachuwa. Even though rice has been planted in the data, in reality the farmers are suffering from drought .
