BEST SOCIAL TEACHER 11. B. Yes, I agree that farmers requires greater capital for the use of water (natural resources) particularly in agricultural production. The reasons are as follows: 1. Intensive use of water resources has led to increased production and yields. Most of the Irrigation in India is based on tapping underground water. 2. As a result underground water tables have fallen rapidly across the country. 3. As water tables decline, farmers have to drill deeper tube wells than before. 4. The use of diesel, electricity for irrigation rises accordingly where small and marginal farmers cannot afford to higher capital investment. 5. Nearly one third of the country is pumping out more ground water than what goes in as recharge. 6. Ground water overuse is particularly found in the agriculturally prosperous regions. 7. Digging of deeper tube wells is very expensive and that results in futher decline of underground water and create burden to farmers. 8. Over use of ground water implies that the stock of ground water is being depleted and which in turn makes the farmer to greater capital investment causes further debts and deaths.
