2021-12-13 19:20:00 Importance of these areas

Rain-fed areas contributed significantly to the country’s food production. They account for 88 per cent of pulses and 40 per cent rice production in the country.

They also support 64 per cent of cattle population in the country.
Inherent issues with Rainfed agriculture.

Low Incomes of farmers- While farmers in irrigated areas earn 60
per cent of their income from agriculture, their counterparts in
rainfed areas earn only 20-30 per cent from farm-related
activities.

Majority people in rain fed areas are poor- There is an overlap of
the poorest districts with rainfed districts in various parts of India.

Low crop yields - While the average yield in rain-fed areas is about 1.1 tonnes per hectare, that in irrigated areas is about 2.8 tonnes
per hectare.

Increasing number of suicides among farmers- especially in the
dry land areas.

Ecologically fragile- One-third of the dry land areas are highly
degraded, which cannot be put under cultivation. They receive rainfall of either less than 500 mm or more than 1,500 mm and suffer from serious water management problems either way.

POLICY BIAS AGAINST RAINFED AGRICULTURE

About Rainfed Agriculture

A region is classified as rainfed, if assured irrigation is not provided to majority of the net sown area. It is an interrelation of production systems, natural resources and people's livelihoods in rainfed regions.

In India they cover around 180 districts and exist in all agro-climatic regions but are mostly concentrated in the arid and semi-arid area. About 61 per cent of India’s farmers rely on rain-fed agriculture and 55 per cent of the gross cropped area is under rain-fed farming.

2021-12-12 08:33:31 Conclusion

Migration and displacement require education systems to accommodate the needs of those who move and
those left behind. Countries need to recognize migrants’ and refugees’ right to education in law and fulfil this
right in practice. They need to tailor education for those cramming into slums, living nomadically or awaiting
refugee status. Education systems need to be inclusive and fulfil the commitment to equity. Teachers need to
be prepared to deal with diversity and the traumas associated with migration and, especially, displacement. Open / Comment
