Farmland's getting pouring rain south of Indian city (8)
I believe the answer is:
agrarian
'farmland's getting pouring' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'rain south of indian city' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'rain' is 'rian' which is within the answer.
'city' could be 'agra' (Indian city) and 'agra' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for agrarian that I've seen before include "kind of revolution" , "Of the cultivation of plants - description of a revolution" , "of the Earth"" , "Ruralist" , "in the country" .)
