Rain and inclement weather, including hailstorm and thunder squalls, have been worrying the local farmers and fruit growers in Kashmir this season.
Inclement weather often delays transplantation of Paddy crop besides damaging it through wind and hailstorm.
Tender fruit buds are too delicate to withstand the vagaries of weather and suffer heavily if weather remains inclement during the budding season.
