Abstract
Agriculture is the backbone of the Indian economy. It gives employment to more than 50 percent of India's population. This sector contributes more than 15 percent to the country's GDP, which signifies its importance in our economy. Though important, it is highly susceptible to losses due to its high dependence on various variable factors such as rainfall, soil fertility, temperature etc., which varies across the region. This article analyzes various literature to help us understand the trend, effects, and impact of rainfall in the Chhatarpur district. We analyze the effects of rainfall on groundwater, cropping patterns, and irrigation facilities in that region.
Keywords: Agriculture, groundwater, irrigation, rainfall
