Heavy rains and strong winds, potentially becoming a cyclone, are expected in India's largest cotton and peanut growing regions in Gujarat, leading to a risk of floods. This could result in significant damage to crops, possibly influencing India's decision to increase overseas cotton purchases and impacting global cotton prices, which have already fallen by nearly 15% this year. The intense weather systems could also cause a decrease in peanut production, which could tighten domestic supplies. Some areas have already experienced flash floods, with the National Disaster Response Force being deployed to aid in rescues.
