Solution

The correct options are
A Rain is a seasonal phenomenon
B Rainfall is uneven
Our agriculture mainly depends on monsoon rainfall. However, these rainfalls are seasonal and unevenly distributed across the country. Rice is grown primarily in the rain-fed areas that receive heavy annual rain. So we can say rainwater can fulfil the high demand of water for crops like rice.
