Draught, or drought, is primarily caused by prolonged periods of below-average precipitation, often exacerbated by high temperatures and increased evaporation rates. Factors such as climate change, altered weather patterns, deforestation, and unsustainable land use practices can also contribute to its severity and frequency. Additionally, human activities, such as over-extraction of water resources and poor agricultural practices, can further aggravate the situation. The combination of these elements leads to water shortages, impacting agriculture, ecosystems, and communities.
