Dryland Farming Systems
Dryland farming systems involve growing crops in areas with limited rainfall without reliance on irrigation. These systems use techniques like selecting drought-tolerant crops, practicing soil conservation, and optimizing planting times to maximize water use. They focus on sustainable methods to produce food efficiently in arid or semi-arid regions, where water scarcity is a major challenge. Dryland farming aims to balance crop productivity with long-term soil health, ensuring livelihoods and food security in dry environments.
