Less than 75 cm

In India, the dryland farming is largely confined to the regions having annual rainfall less than 75 cm.
These regions grow hardy and drought resistant crops such as ragi, bajra, moong, gram and guar (fodder crops) and practise various measures of soil moisture conservation and rain water harvesting.
Dryland farming, also known as rain-fed farming, is a method of agriculture practiced in regions with limited annual precipitation, where irrigation is not a primary water source for crops.
This type of farming relies on the moisture present in the soil from rainfall, and the crops are dependent on the amount and timing of precipitation.
Dryland farming faces challenges such as unpredictable rainfall, droughts, and the risk of crop failure due to water scarcity. Farmers often need to adopt adaptive strategies to manage these risks.
