How Can It Be Remedied?

The water shortage can be remedied by many different methods. The first method is mulching. Mulching is to cover soil with a material such as dead leaves or compost to further enrich the soil and also to prevent evaporation from exposed soil. Transpiration produced by weeds should also be reduced by keeping the soil between plants dry and implementing weed control measures. Irrigation methods which do not require much water such as hydroponics and aeroponics may also be applied.
