Making Rain in India is a Necessity/Cloud Seeding
Journal Title: International journal of Emerging Trends in Science and Technology - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Water is the base of human life. Day by day water resources are decreasing and its uses are increasing. Rain is the main source of water and plays key role in agriculture. This paper concentrates on the scenario of rain in India and emphasizes the need of cloud seeding in India. As per the report of World Bank, India is going to be the water stressed country by 2025. Annual average precipitation of India is 1 170 mm and around 80 percent of the total area of the country experiences annual rainfall of 750 mm. Due to the large spatial and variability in the rainfall, water resources distribution in the country is highly skewed in time and space and water deficit country by 2050 and its 16 percent of total area is drought prone and farmers are committing suicide so there is a great need of proper water management. Through cloud seeding India can tackle this situation. Cloud Seeding is a technique to create condensation by increasing precipitation in air. In India there is huge need of this type of technology which can increase humidity in drought prone area, like Vidarbha region that is the worst region for agriculture. More than 20,000 farmers committed suicide in this region. Cloud seeding is the only hope of the people who are living in drought prone areas.
