A drought differs from other natural hazards in that it lacks any precise or universally accepted definition, seldom results in structural damage and can linger for lengthy periods of time in affected areas.
A drought is generally defined as a shortage of rainfall over an extended period of time, which restricts or prevents a human activity. This can lead to a reduced volume of water in water bodies such as rivers, dry ground and a lack of plant growth. These impacts affect activities such as agriculture and power generation, and can have flow on effects to other sectors of the community.
Because the main impact of a drought is often on agriculture, the Ministry for Primary Industries(external link) will declare when a dry period is classed as a drought.

Unlike other natural disasters that individuals encounters, drought can be curbed if the humankind are willing to; one of the ways of preventing drought is by massive planting of trees, trees are of very vital importance to our environment and they should be highly appreciated by increasing. the rate of afforestation .they attract rain hence preventing drought.
