====================
As u know india is agricultural country , so farmers depend on monsoon for their further production , so here monsoon plays a very important role . It plays that much role in a farmer's life that a farmer can live or can die becoz of it .
From wheat and rice to vegetables, cotton, and tea, Indian farmers grow a wide range of crops and the country uses more land for crops than any other country in the world (215 million acres). Crops depend on rain and, in India, more than three quarters of the annual rainfall occurs during the four months of the summer monsoon season. But during years when there is less rainfall than usual, crops die in the fields or cannot be planted at all.
Each monsoon season brings fears of flooding, mudslides and other dangerous conditions that can devastate the lives of millions of people. With these kinds of reports, many people forget that the monsoon also brings a positive, life-sustaining bounty. For millions of people around the world, the monsoon is critical to survival, playing a vital role in everything from food production to the economy.
Thanks to the important role that the monsoon plays in the economy, newspapers often refer to the monsoon as "India's true finance minister." More than half of India's 1.2 billion people work on farms, and agriculture makes up 15 percent of the Indian economy. When the monsoon fails or rainfall totals are lower than expected, farmers harvest fewer crops.
Hope it's work ^_^ •.

Answer:
1) Indian agriculture has always been dependent on monsoons.
2) Arrival and impact of monsoon decides the fate of agriculture.
3) It is both uncertain and irregular.
4) The large scale irrigation serves only one third of crop area.
5) The remaining has to suffer the vagaries of the monsoon.
6) Thus one can term Indian agriculture as 'a gamble with monsoons.'
