The hilly regions of Karnataka are also relatively humid and receive a lot of rainfall.<\/p>\n<p>Drought is a natural disaster that occurs when there is a prolonged period of below-average rainfall. This can lead to a shortage of water for drinking, irrigation, and other purposes. Drought can also have a devastating impact on agriculture, livestock, and the environment.<\/p>\n<p>The effects of drought can be mitigated by a number of measures, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rainwater harvesting<\/li>\n<li>Water conservation<\/li>\n<li>Drought-resistant crops<\/li>\n<li>Livestock management<\/li>\n<li>Environmental
