| Abstract: |
Rainfall is the major dominating factor for the success or failure of agricultural crops as more than 65% of the total cultivable land in
Nepal is rainfed. In this pape, rainfall data (1977-2000) from National Wheat Research Program located at Bhairahawa, Rupandehi
is analyzed and recommendation is made for efficient utilization for planning and management of rice and wheat cultivation. The
average annual rainfall was found to be 1775 tnm. The monthly maximum average rainfall 584 mm was observed in the month of
July and the minimum average rainfall 5.69mm was found in November. The highest annual rainfall2351mm was marked in 1984
and lowest rainfall1302 mm in 1992. One day maximum rainfall298 mm was noted on 14th July in 1996. The deviation of the
average annual mean rainfall from the long term average rainfall was highest 32.38% in 1984 and it was lowest 1.02% in 1982. Out
of 24 years, 18 years were normal, 4 years were wet and numbers of dry years were 2. Average rainfall occurred in rice season was
89.69% of the total average rainfall (TAVR) where as wheat season bad only 4.3% of TAVR. The study clearly indicates the
importance of rainwater harvesting and its utilization for supplementary irrigation of rice I!Jld wheat crop in rainfed areas. |
