Question

how do the building of dams and pollution have impacted farming and water reserves in southwest asia?

•Others, like Saudi Arabia, have almost no water. •They are mostly made up of desert. •Others, like Iran, have areas with access to rivers and areas that are made up of deserts. •Because water is in short supply in so many parts of Southwest Asia,irrigation has been necessary for those who want to farm and raiseanimals for market.
