Answer 1

Answer:

(Possibly reword this if you want and possibly add extra) For things like farming in an area that has monsoons, there are still many options. Most will wait preferably for monsoons to start before they start planting things like peanuts, sugarcane, soybeans, etc. Ways to collect water to save for the dry months would be of course a water collecting system, (pipes, barrels, storage space, working system that can continue the flow of water) In the wet seasons it's more common to grow things like cucumber, lettuce, tomato, etc. Growing crops in the wet seasons that are typically grown in another time slot is still an option when you have raised planting areas, drainage, etc. Depending on how you farm and how much produce you must grow you can turn to a greenhouse, most greenhouses have controlled temperature and a good water system that relies on a timer. Main idea: By positioning a giant tank (downhill if possible) from the crops leading to pipes and such you can collect and store it for months. Later being used for the crops.
