Climate change and its influence on rainfall, accounts important for agricultural production. All farm activities are indeed focused based on the rainfall amount and its distribution over the cropping season. The trend analysis on Northeast monsoon rainfall amount and distribution of the rainfall in number of rainy days was conducted for Pudukkottai district to understand climatological performance of rainfall. With a study period of 35 years the analysis was able to conclude that there had been 7 excess rainfall years, 11 deficit years and 17 normal rainfall years and having an increasing trend. Contradictorily, the number rainy days faced a decreasing trend that could result intense rainfall distribution. Crop planning and management activities could be framed based on the rainfall distribution.
