Problem:
Read the following paragraph and determine if the hypothesis is true:

THE persistence and severity of the drought in the Murray-Darling Basin has been described as "unprecedented" after late summer inflows to the river system fell to a 117-year low.

Irrigation water for Australia's food bowl will be dependent almost entirely on rainfall as basin states hold back water for critical human needs. "The persistence and severity of this drought, particularly over the past three years, is unprecedented,'' authority chief executive Rob Freeman said as he delivered the basin's latest drought update.
