A drought is a period of below-average precipitation in a given region, resulting in prolonged shortages in its water supply, whether atmospheric, surface water or ground water. A drought can last for months or years, or may be declared after as few as 15 days. It can have a substantial impact on the ecosystem and agriculture of the affected region and harm to the local economy.
In 1937, the Works Progress Administration (WPA) reported that drought was the main reason for relief in the Dust Bowl region. More than two thirds were farmers. Total assistance was estimated at $1 billion (in 1930s dollars).The report found that losses in the Dust Bowl affected the entire national economy. .(Source: Economics of the Dust Bowl, National Drought Mitigation Center.)
