The Meteorological Department has advised farmers of irrigated plains of Punjab, Sindh, KP to complete sowing of wheat crop before 15 December to get maximum yield. In case of late sowing in December, the recommended varieties should be cultivated to minimise the expected loss in yield. 
In its ten day (21st to 30th November) advisory for farmers, the Met Office said that wheat cultivation is completed in most of the Barani areas of the country. Farmers of Barani areas are advised to remove weeds from the fields, so that the present soil moisture may fully be utilised.
