Abstract
Description
Drought affects the agricultural sector severely, as irrigation is vital to agricultural production. This paper discusses farmers’ measures and the government’s role in coping with drought. Review of references, especially those primary papers, is this paper writing method. Drought impacts the El-Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), resulting in lower rainfall below normal and occurring recurrently every several years. Agricultural drought is relatively easier to intervene in than meteorology. Drought affects food production in many countries in the world. Farmers try their best measures to minimize harvest drop or failure. The government attempts to predict drought through remote sensing and daily rainfall data. The government takes many actions to cope with drought at the farm level. It is necessary that the farmers have high resilience and that the government’s policies are precise in the short and long terms to deal with drought.
