The recent floods in Upper Assam have left a trail of destruction, with fields covered in a thick layer of silt. This has raised concerns among farmers about the ability of their fields to grow crops again. The silt deposited by the floods can affect the soil's fertility, making it difficult for crops to grow. The Assam government will have to take measures to remove the silt and restore the fertility of the soil.
