agricultural drought[edit | edit source]
Conditions that result in adverse crop responses, usually because plants cannot meet potential transpiration as a result of high atmospheric demand and/or limited soil moisture.
Drought severity may be defined according to the Palmer Drought Severity Index or functionally expressed as yield-reducing water stress.
