Record in 38 years: Rainfall in Turkey increased by 87 percent

Rainfall during Turkey's water year has reached unprecedented levels in 38 years, recording an increase of 87 percent. According to reporting from Memurlar.net, this figure stands out as the most striking result of meteorological data tracked across the country over an extended period.

The exceptionally high precipitation levels during the October-September period designated as the water year have positively affected water reservoir fill rates across the country, particularly dams and groundwater sources. Meteorology experts emphasize that the precipitation increase is expected to produce clear positive effects on agricultural production as well.

Meanwhile, rainfall distribution, which varies from region to region, reached values well above normal in some areas while remaining more moderate in others. According to officials, these data carry critical importance for the country's water management policies and provide significant input for planning work in the period ahead.
