Rainfed Agriculture
Rainfed agriculture is farming that relies solely on natural rainfall for water, without irrigation from external sources like rivers or wells. It is common in many parts of the world and depends on seasonal rain patterns, making crop yields more vulnerable to droughts and irregular rainfall. Farmers in rainfed systems typically grow crops suited to their local climate and may face challenges related to water availability. While it often involves lower costs than irrigated farming, it requires careful planning and management to optimize productivity in varying weather conditions.
