Prolonged shortage (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drought

'prolonged shortage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for drought that I've seen before include "dry condition" , "Long water shortage" , "Period of abnormal dryness" , "Hot drug (anag)" , "Period of low rainfall" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
