The book chapters have been carefully organized to guide students through the full range of rainfed agriculture, with relevant examples and diagrams provided to illustrate key concepts. The topics covered are highly pertinent given the growing interest in rainfed agriculture technologies.
The content focuses on innovative approaches to managing dryland and rainfed lands, including an introduction to rainfed farming, its characteristics, distribution, and associated challenges. Additionally, the management of rainfed crops, water harvesting and moisture conservation, the use of mulches and antitranspirants, principles of intercropping, watershed resource management, drought management, soil erosion, stress physiology, and the potential for agro-horticulture, agro-forestry, and silvi-pasture in dryland agriculture are all explored in depth.
