rain-fed

Increases in malnutrition are expected to be especially severe in countries where large populations depend on rain-fed subsistence farming.

Most of the agriculture is rain-fed, and with lack of rain, crop yields are poor.

How could changing weather affect rain-fed crops in the Horn of Africa, or winter flooding and summer droughts in Uzbekistan?

This summer saw the worst monsoon since 1972, a major setback for a country which remains heavily dependent on rain-fed agriculture.

In some countries, yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50% by 2020.

Yet modest water storage can hugely improve yields in rain-fed agriculture, by smoothing over short dry spells.

Irrigation may not help: climate change will hit irrigated systems harder than rain-fed ones.

The water - 95 percent of our agriculture is rain-fed - which means in bad years you can harvest nothing.

The most vulnerable agricultural systems are the rain-fed uplands and lowlands that form almost 80 per cent of total rice land in Africa.

Over half of world's food comes from rain-fed farms, as opposed to irrigated ones.

90 percent of Africa's agricultural land is rain-fed and subject to the vagaries of weather.

Corn is grown in rain-fed regions that already feel the ill effects of climate change on their agricultural output, according to Oikeh.

Rain-fed agriculture provides 90 per cent of sub-Saharan Africa's food staples.

In Iowa in the US, the average rain-fed maize yield is 10 tonnes per hectare.

The UN points out that rain-fed agriculture in Africa may be cut in half by 2020 because of shifting rainfall.

Finally, they can be grown using rain-fed methods of production.

Ning will be based on rain-fed agriculture and agriculture-based county.

But few mention the declining supply of water that is needed to grow irrigated and rain-fed crops.

And it is grown in rain-fed regions prone to crop failures.
