Presentation transcript:

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought After completing this Lesson you have learned to answer: 1.What features of drought impacts crop production? 2.List the effects of early-season drought on crop growth? 3.List the effects of mid-season drought on crop growth? 4.List the effects of terminal drought on crop growth? 5.Which type of drought results in poor crop stand? 6.Which type of drought is more serious in agriculture? Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture?

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought A direct outcome of the shortage in rainfall leading to drought situation has been on crop production. Drought not only affects crop/crops in individual farmer’s field but also damages the crops grown in the entire region exposed to the drought. Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture?

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture? The loss in crop yields in the farmer’s field and in the region ultimately reflect in the crop production in the country as a whole.

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought The extent of damage to crop/s depend on the stage of the crop and the timing, period and severity of drought. Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture? Early-season Drought Mid-season Drought Late-season Drought

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Effect of delayed rains and early season drought: Delay in field operations Delay in sowing or untimely sowing of crops Poor germination Low crop stand Week seedlings Susceptibility to pests and diseases. Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture? Poor germination and crop stand

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Effect of mid-season drought Poor tillering No or delayed flowering Drying of pollen Increased costs for irrigation Higher susceptibility to pests and diseases. Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture? Delayed flowering in sorghum

Virtual Academy for the Semi Arid Tropics Course on Coping with Drought About Drought Effect of late-season or terminal drought Poor seed/pod/ fruit setting Low crop yields Low quality produce Increased costs for irrigation Susceptibility to pests and diseases. Lesson 2: How drought affects agriculture? Drought affected sorghum with very low yields
