Traditional farming in India depends on monsoon. Monsoon rains are not time bound or continuous. Monsoon rains are sometimes late or insufficient due to various reasons.

Irrigation on the other hand is dependent on water available with farmers usually tube wells. This gives a more systematic and continuous water supply. It also supports scientific and modern farming.

Therefore, farmers rely on irrigation than rainfall.
