Fasal Katai muhurat: shubh dates to begin the harvest

Fasal Katai, the harvest muhurat, is the timing for beginning the cutting and for bringing the first grain home to the threshing floor or the store. Farmers ask for a shubh muhurat here because the harvest closes what the sowing opened, and the first sheaf is customarily cut with a short puja rather than started casually. Tarini gives you ranked dated, timed windows for फसल कटाई मुहूर्त inside the ripening period you name, judged against your own birth chart as well as the panchang, with the tithis, nakshatras and hours to avoid, so the first cut and the first load into the store both fall in a favourable slot.

About this muhurat

For beginning the harvest and bringing the grain in.

The harvest muhurat covers two moments: the ceremonial first cutting in the field, and the first entry of grain into the granary or store, which many families time separately. A handful of the new crop is usually offered to the household deity and to the field boundary before the main cutting begins. Farmers take this muhurat at the close of the kharif and rabi seasons, when a new orchard bears for the first time, and when grain from a newly bought field is brought in.
