“eurces prey ian r rience, a paper submitted to the FAO
Regional Seainar on Rainfed Agriculture in the Near East,
Aman 5-10 May 1979, p 3+
There are two main probless associated with the amount of rainfall:
length of the rainyseason and seasonal variation in precipitation.
The interval of the rainy season, as typical of the Middle East in
General, is noticeably short extending mainly from December 20 to
February 20, when usually 70 percent of total precipitation falls.
®y the end of March rain ceases almost totally and leaves the
soll and its green cover to a baking sun for more than six
months. The practical implications of this climatic constraint on
cultural practices under Gryfarming patterns cannot be overemphasizeds
