Thakare (Kawathekar)2, 1Director, Online computer academy, Nagpur, M.S., India, 2Research Scholarand Associate Prof., Dept. of Architecture, K.I.T.S., Ramtek, Dist. Nagpur, M.S.,India. Abstract: Agriculture is a largest economic sector and plays a very significant role in the socio economic development of our country, which is now in crises. The farmers of various states particularly in Maharashtra are in distress due to multiple factors ending in suicide in large scale. Farmer’s suicides in growing numbers throughout the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Punjab is the most crucial problem and calls for the topmost priority in the agenda of rulers & policy makers. The suicidal trend set in 1991 by the farmers of Andhra Pradesh has spread to Maharashtra in 2000-01 and has been continued even today. Vidarbha is observed as the suicide prone/ danger zone of the state. In Vidarbha region more numbers of farmers have committed suicide to overcome the miseries due to various reasons viz. nonproduction of crops, bad debts, drought, lack of markets, marketing and irrigation facilities exploitation by private money lenders and other social and family causes arising out of the combination of various factors, but no one particular reason could be attributed to this saddest event of the mankind in the Indian history. The Rural Development agencies are coming in picture for the post suicidal help within their limits.

It is a dom- inant single weather element influencing grape vine cultivation. It also becomes a climatic hazard to agriculture when it is characterized with scantiness, concentration, intensity, variability and unreliability. The quantum of rainfall and time of rainy days may be quite sufficient to meet the annual requirement of successful cultivation. In Solapur District average annual is tremendously varies year to year and tahsil to tahsil which is directly affects on agriculture land and also affect human activities in Solapur District.
