Abstract: | This paper is based on the experiences of the author working in drought relief programmes in N.E. Africa and in marginal rainfall areas of India. It is intended to provide suggestions and guidelines for workers involved at an initial stage in a drought where there may be early opportunities for short term crop production programmes, and longer term measures for water conservation as an integral part of the relief programme. |
