Droughts in the Valles macroregion of Bolivia

Drought in Bolivia has been increasing due to rising temperatures. The graph shows how the humid or normal intensity has given way to mild drought (between five and ten consecutive days without rain), with an increase in moderate drought (low water levels in rivers, streams, reservoirs, and wells) and severe drought (water shortages are common), and the more frequent occurrence of extreme drought (major losses in crops and pastures, and the risk of forest fires is extreme).
