Q. What problems are caused for agriculture if rainfall arrives early, late or if the amount of rainfall varies from year to year?

Early:
v Harvesting of Rabi crops is affected.
v Early monsoon means more rainfall thus floods occur.
v Sowing of Kharif crops is also affected.

Late:
v Late monsoon means less rainfall.
v Barani areas are affected more because farming in these areas depends upon rainfall.
v Less rainfall may lead to draught conditions.
Variations:
v Barani farming is affected if less rainfall occurs.
v Farmers need to arrange irrigation supplies to their fields which are expensive.
v Rain that comes in heavy showers destroys crops.
v Fields are flooded if more rainfall occurs destroying crops.

Q. How problems arising from uneven rainfall could be reduced?

v Storage in reservoirs, barrages, ponds and tanks during high rainfall reduces floods and provide water for use in dry period.
v River embankments, diversion canals and Afforestation on mountain slopes also reduce floods.
v Weather forecast to guide farmers about the upcoming conditions.
