People commute on a flooded road after heavy monsoon rain in the northern Indian city of Allahabad August 7, 2008. The June-September rains are vital for farm output and the overall economy as they help to determine rural spending. Only 40 percent of India's cultivated land is irrigated. The rest is rain-fed.
