Answer» The given bar graph represents the information on the sources of irrigation in India in 2011. As per the graph, 4% of the water supply is from tanks, 30% from canals, 20% from open wells, 40% from tube wells and 6% from other sources. This study shows that the maximum amount of water supply (40%) relies on tube wells as they have the ability to supply water to a larger area, and are more useful in times of drought, when surface water sources dry up. However, it can be noticed that in close succession are sources such as canals (30%) and open wells (20%). Tanks (4%) are not preferred as they take up a lot of open space which could rather be used for agriculture. |
