Drought is a normal, recurrent climatic feature that occurs in
virtually every climatic zone around the world, causing billions of
dollars in loss annually for the farming community. Crops are
selected across the country to normal rainfall conditions. If any
deviation in normal rainfall towards deficit, it will adversely
affect the crop growth, development and production under rainfed
conditions. The early break in monsoon, i.e. early season drought
is the one which adversely affect the transplanting area of rice
while the monsoon failure during July and August, i.e. intermittent
drought is highly detrimental in the tropics to a larger extent.
This resulted to a sudden decline in agricultural production
despite the adaptation of improved technologies to mitigate the
effect of drought. This book contains seven chapters. It deals with
various basic and applied aspects of drought and dry spells on rice
crop. It is illustrative with graphs, photographs, pictures and
tables. Information on weather parameters are also incorporated in
the end of chapters through table and graph. In addition,
references alongwith bibliography has also been presented in the
second and last seventh chapter.
