Abstract

Ground water level is so important for the production of crop. It is considered that if the soil has higher ground water level then it is appropriate for crop production. On the other hand, it is very difficult to produce crop from the soil having low ground water level. For example, for the crop of rice, it is necessary that soil must have high ground water level as rice needs a lot of water to grow. The level of ground water may differ from place to place. The current paper describes the need of proper ground water level for crop production.
