yes. both agriculture/tourism can be affected.
Dams are built to generate electric power, to create a body of water for irrigations of farms, for recreational uses, for erosion control (small dams), but in most cases decrease the area of farmland.
When a beaver builds a dam in a river, the river is stopped at that point and creates a sort of lake. If people had property on the river, that property can be destroyed. This is why some people object to beavers building dams.
The potential consequences of water dams breaking include flooding, destruction of property, loss of life, displacement of communities, and environmental damage.
