Question

Why is it said that agriculture in India is dependent on the monsoon season?

Answer 1

Agriculture in India is dependent on the monsoon season because farmers are not well equipped with modern methods of manual irrigation. They are still dependent on monsoon rains for irrigating their crops. The Indian economy gains due to good monsoon rains in the country resulting in a good yield of crops. On the other hand, weak Monsoon rains result in crop failure.
