Abstract:

Drought, with rainfall occurring for many years, and less than average to happen at any time, any place is a naturally occurring climate event may occur. Today, in the world, which is one of the biggest problems we face on a global scale drought, the point reached today at the physical and natural environment, urban life, development and the economy, technology, agriculture and food, clean water and health care affects every stage of our lives to be. The degree of impact, duration, and time is extremely difficult to estimate the effects of the drought, human activities are closely related to the.Drought is a natural phenomenon that has significant economic, social and environmental impacts. Drought differs from other natural hazards in the sense that its onset and end is difficult to determine. It develops slowly and its impacts may remain for years even after termination of the event. Impacts of drought are usually first apparent in agriculture and gradually move to other water dependent sectors.Drought in the agricultural sector, meaning different than other sectors. Because the total rain falling throughout the year for plants too, the water is more important than the growth stages of plant's root zone. Therefore, plants need water in the soil can not be found in the output, and the development of agricultural drought is called. The country, in terms of the possible effects of global warming, are among the countries at risk in the future, especially in the Mediterranean and Central Anatolia regions are estimated to be affected by climate change than. Reduce the negative impacts of agricultural drought, drought and drought periods of measures to be taken in prior periods without the proper planning, can do. Therefore, while there steps you can take drought and drought measures to be taken in the previous period should be planned separately. Ensuring the continuity of rainfall, although we have to increase the supply of water, to reduce the negative effects of drought in our hands.
