If a flood occurs, a farmer's crops can suffer significant damage due to excess water, which can lead to root rot, nutrient leaching, and stunted growth. Standing water can also drown plants and create favorable conditions for pests and diseases. Additionally, soil erosion may occur, further degrading the land's fertility. Ultimately, the flood can result in reduced yields or total crop loss, impacting the farmer's livelihood.
Because the flood waters produce water for the farmers
Farmers on the River Nile benefitted from the river's annual flood. The flood irrigated and fertilized the land along the Nile, making it possible for them to grow and harvest crops.
If they flood they could damage the crops because farmers their plant crops close to the rivers so they get the water
The cycle of the nile helped the farmers because, when it would flood, it would unearth alot of fertile, moist soil. This soil, would help farmers grow all sorts of crops. Before the flood came, the farmers would harvest all their crops so they wouldn't be washed away. After the harvest, the cycle would start all over again,
I don't think this would answer the full question that you asked, but Mesopotamians did use irrigation to protect their crops from flood and drought. Flood would probably wipe out their crops and drought would dry their crops. A thing I'm not sure of is how they would protect their crops from locusts. When I find the answer I'll be sure to send you that too. -Anon
Farmers diversified their crops
Heavy rain, Flood destroys crops, some time washes it out. Farmers and farming suffer a lot. When crops are destroyed or washed out, farmers go bankcrupt. They can't pay their debt, loan. And this have impact on social life.
They dug holes to move it and they built dams to make sure they had enough water but there crops didn't flood.
when a flood comes they a lot damage to the people that are loss of population all the houses partly go under water and all the crops are destroyed
Essential! If the Nile didnt flood, the farmers and their families would die of starvation
The fertile land on the flood plains produce good grass.
Tenant farmers grew a large variety of crops.
