India's having its worst drought in almost 40 years
October 2, 2009
The average rainfall across India is 23% below average after the weakest monsoon season since 1972 in the world's second-most-populous country. Northwest India is actually 36% below normal precipitation. The shortage of precipitation is especially significant, since 60% of India's population relies on agriculture as a principal source of income; one analyst says the drought has set back farmers' well-being by ten years.
We can help you with many products for water control in agricultural settings, including portable pumps and canal gates for irrigation systems. Please feel free to contact us with your questions.
