Drought Management
Drought management involves strategies and practices aimed at reducing the negative impacts of drought on communities, agriculture, and the environment. This includes monitoring water resources, implementing water conservation techniques, and developing drought response plans. Effective drought management helps ensure that water supplies remain sustainable during dry periods.
Key components of drought management include public education on water use, investment in infrastructure for water storage, and the promotion of drought-resistant crops. Collaboration among government agencies, farmers, and local communities is essential to create a comprehensive approach that addresses both immediate needs and long-term resilience against future droughts.
