Available Soil Moisture (ASM) in %
Colour Codes:
Red to Yellow (ASM < 50 ): Not suitable for sowing of Crops. Requires irrigation for sowing.
Green to Blue: Suitable for Coarse Cereals.
Deep Blue: Suitable for Rice.
Note: Suitability does not imply crops have been sown it depends on various other factors.
Not suitable does not imply that no crops are sown as irrigation of the fields is possible.
