water rationing

Water rationing is a management practice used during times of water scarcity, such as droughts or high demand. It involves setting limits on water usage for households, businesses, and agriculture to conserve available supplies. Rationing can take various forms, like designated days for watering lawns or restrictions on indoor water use, aiming to ensure that everyone has access to the essential amount of water while preserving resources for future needs. The goal is to prevent shortages, protect the environment, and maintain public health amid challenging conditions.
