Submitted by susan on Thu, 2015-05-07 17:02
India gets 70% of its annual rainfall in the monsoon, which irrigates half the country's farmlands. In 2014, IMD had forecast that rainfall in June-September
monsoon season would be 95% of the 50-year average, which is below normal rainfall. In its August review of the forecast, IMD cut the prediction to 87%, after rainfall in June came in at the lowest in five years.
