Lahore farming weather

Field conditions around Lahore are heat-stressed: soil moisture in the top layer is near 0.16 m³/m³, below the ideal band for cotton and maize. Irrigation before dawn will lose the least to evaporation, with reference evapotranspiration near 7.6 mm/day. Spraying is viable only in the early morning while winds stay under 15 km/h; afternoon gusts and thermals will cause drift. Watch for heat stress in cotton above 38°C — shade-net nurseries and mulching help retain moisture ahead of Friday's possible storm.
