There are 15 agro-ecological zones in India. In each of them,
there are systems that exemplify the myriad ways in which human
needs and limits imposed by the physical environment balance
each other. The history of these ways is the story of many little
traditions of survival and adequate use.

all over again, how to value the raindrop.
