10. Common threats to agriculture faced by farmers of India and China  We have been drawing down our water supplies at an unsustainable rate. We have aggravated the water availability problem by ignoring soil health using industrialized systems. There are four main areas on the planet which are growing grain using rain fed agriculture. They are the central U.S., Brazil, Argentina, and edges of China.
