Big blow to Boro

For the first time in recent years, Bangladesh is set to experience a less productive rice season owing to a huge loss of Boro crops. Back-to-back disasters -- flashfloods, intense rainfall and fungal disease blast attacks -- have come as a blow to Boro, the biggest of the country's three rice seasons. The other two seasons are Aus and Aman.
