Symon's Rain Gauge is a non-recording rain gauge. Sugarcane is a Rabi crop. If the rice requires about 12 cm depth of water at an interval of 10 days and the base period for rice is 120 days, then the, delta for rice is 120 cm. An artificial obstruction placed in a river or water course to increase the depth of water is known as cross regulator. Spillways are passages for letting out flood water when the reservoir is overflowing.
