Abstract
Either soil moisture deficiency or atmospheric drought occurs due to irregularities in the rainfall distribution, low humidity accompanied by hot dry winds which revelry affect crop stands and yield of vegetation. Various agro-techniques have been developed for dry zones and drought-prone areas for the field crops; but little attention is given to tackle drought situation in plantation crops, even though these crops pass through unfavourable dry weather spells for over 5 months from December to May in the tropics.
