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.
