How rainfall is measured?
Rainfall occurs when moisture in the atmosphere condenses into drops. When water droplets in clouds become too heavy to stay aloft, they fall out of the cloud, towards the ground as the most common form of rainfall. Rainfall control our water supplies. That water supply is the basis of crop production. Rainfall is especially important in rainfed or dry land agriculture Knowing the nature and characteristics of rainfall, we can conceptualize and predict its effect on the crop production and environment.
