Answer:

Irrigation helps to increase productivity even in low rainfall. The productivity on irrigated land is higher as compared to the unirrigated land. Multiple cropping is not possible in India because the rainy season is specific in most regions. However, the climate supports cultivation throughout the year.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • grow more pastures and crops.
  • have more flexibility in your systems and operations.
  • produce higher quality crops/pastures as water stress can dramatically impact on the quality of farm produce.
  • lengthen the growing season (or start the season at an earlier time)
