Monsoon Season
The monsoon is a seasonal wind that brings heavy rainfall, especially to South and Southeast Asia. In India, the southwest monsoon is very important for agriculture, as it provides most of the water needed for crops. If the monsoon is 'deficient,' it means it brings less rain than usual, which can cause droughts.
