The main cause of drought is the absence of rainfall, a problem that, when maintained, gives rise to the so-called meteorological drought; and the hydrological one if it lasts over time and aquifer and lake water reserves fall below the statistical mean. For its part, agricultural drought does not necessarily have to be caused by the lack of rain , soil erosion derived from the misuse of water may also be responsible.
Droughts can become a strong enemy if water sources dry up, as this can cause the supply of drinking water to be reduced. To avoid this, it is essential to control water consumption throughout the year, more vigorously in the dry seasons.
