The chapters of the book have been selected and arranged in such a manner as to lead the students through the entire gamut of rainfed agriculture supported by suitable examples and diagrams. The topics covered are most relevant in view of growing interests in rainfed agriculture technologies. The focus is on new concepts and approaches in dryland and rainfed lands; rainfed farming-introduction, characteristics, distribution and problems; efficient management of rainfed crops; water harvesting and moisture conservation; study of mulches and antitranspirants; principles of intercropping; concept of watershed resource management; drought and its management; soil erosion-definition, nature and extent of erosion; stress physiology; scope of agro-horticultural, agro-forestry and silvi-pasture in dryland agriculture etc.Note: T&F does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

The chapters of the book have been meticulously selected and organized in a manner that guides students through the entire spectrum of rainfed agriculture, supported by relevant examples and illustrations. The topics covered are highly pertinent, given the growing interest in rainfed agriculture technologies.The book focuses on new concepts and approaches in dryland and rainfed lands, including rainfed farming-definition, characteristics, distribution, and problems; effective management of rainfed crops; water harvesting and moisture conservation techniques; the study of mulches and antitranspirants; principles of intercropping; watershed resource management principles; drought and its management; soil erosion-definition, extent, and nature of erosion; stress physiology; and the scope of agro-horticultural, agro-forestry, and silvi-pasture in dryland agriculture, among other topics.The primary objective of this book is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of rainfed agriculture and the latest technologies and practices that can be applied to improve crop yields and sustainability in rainfed environments. The book also aims to serve as a valuable resource for researchers, extension workers, and other stakeholders involved in rainfed agriculture.
