The answer is true.

Droughts

Drought is a situation that arises due to long intervals of no rainfall or very scarce or little rainfall. It refers to the reduction in the availability of water or moisture to a considerably lower level that takes place over a specific period.

Effects of drought

  • Droughts lead to a reduction in the available water store for the people. Drinking water and water for daily use becomes scarce.
  • Drought affects the soil that loses its moisture. It leads to almost no production of crops and a reduction in food production.
  • The unavailability of rainfall also affects the weather and makes the conditions hot and dry.

Drought management

  • The Meteorological Department of India has set up a 'Drought Research Unit' that checks the climatic conditions triggering drought.
  • Measures like rainwater harvesting, afforestation, the building of small dams have been taken into concern.
