Seoul National University Press. Book Introduction Drought is caused by temporal and spatial imbalances in precipitation. Recent climate changes have caused more frequent occurrence of natural disasters such as droughts than in the past. Droughts occur gradually, but in areas where agricultural infrastructure is weak or where water resources are scarce, agriculture will be directly affected. This is especially so in the case of Korea  – if there is a drought in spring or autumn, when crops are harvested or planted, it will directly hurt agricultural production. Drought characteristics in our country cause North Koreans, whose infrastructure is particularly weak, to suffer economically and socially. North Korea is one of the world’s most vulnerable countries to drought, with less water resources than South Korea and a poor irrigation system to supply water to crops. In⋯
