Abstract

For agricultural planning, it is important to know the sequence of dry, wet periods. For this purpose a week period may be taken as the optimum length of time. The success or failure of crops particularly under rainfed conditions is closely linked with the rainfall patterns. In this study the Markov chain model method has been applied to know the probability of having a dry or a wet week and consecutive dry or wet periods of 2 or 3 weeks during monsoon period over Andhra Pradesh.
