The districts of Anantapur, Bellary, Cuddapah and Kurnool form the zone known as the "Ceded Districts" in the Madras State. This zone is a typical dry-farming tract. Barring a few pockets of garden-lands, the major portion of the aren under cultivation in these four districts is rainfed. Hence the nature of precipitation decides the success or failure of farming in this tract. The tract is situated between longitude 3º 4 to 16° 25 and latitude 75° 40' to 70° 33' and at an altitude that varies from 500 to 2500 feet. Bellary and Anantapur form the northern and North-Eastern extremity of the Mysore plateau and Kurnool, and. Cuddapah touch the Enst coast districts of Nellore and Guntur.
