The Regional Agricultural Development Commission of Siliana revealed, in a communication addressed to the actors of the Ettadhamen Agricultural Development Complex and all agriculturalists in the irrigated area of Al-Akhmas, that it has decided to stop supplying the irrigated area public of Al-Akhmas with water from the Al-Akhmas dam, due to the decline in its water reserves to an alarming level (250 thousand cubic meters out of a total absorption capacity of 7 million meters cubes) until these water reserves improve.
It should be mentioned that the regional police station had previously announced the prohibition on the seasonal cultivation of cucurbits in the irrigated areas of the state of Siliana, to preserve water resources and limit the watering of fruit trees and rough fodder.
