The term dry-farming is, of course, a misnomer. In reality it is farming under drier conditions than those prevailing in the countries in which scientific agriculture originated. Many suggestions for a better name have been made. Scientific agriculture has-been proposed, but all agriculture should be scientific, and agriculture without irrigation in an arid country has no right to lay sole claim to so general a title. Dry-land agriculture, which has also been suggested, is no improvement over dry-farming, as it is longer and also carries with it the idea of dryness. Instead of the name dry-farming it would, perhaps, be better to use the names, arid-farming. semiarid-farming, humid-farming, and irrigation-farming, according to the climatic conditions prevailing in various parts of the world.
