The primary source of water in Mesopotamia is from the two rivers, Euphrates and Tigris
Farming in the 1930â??s brought with it concerns with the effects droughts could have on crops. The new methods for farming during this time period included the use of super aqueducts to supply water that was needed for the growth of crops.
The Mesopotamians built canals because they need a way to water there plants and they need a way to control there river flows
The Mesopotamians fought over the resources and water rights.
they used the surrounding rivers (tigris and euphretes) for water and used the mineral rich and extremely fertile soil (I.E. the fertile crescent) to plant crops.
they were using irrigation.
the Mesopotamians would make levees. the levees helped store the water in one place .the levees led to an irrigation system .the irrigation systems would help water crops .the watered crops would lead to a food surplus which led to an increase of population and to division of labor.division of labor is since the Mesopotamians didn't have to worry about the droughts they had time to do other things like making pottery
No water crops die. Too much water crops die.
Mesopotamians developed advanced irrigation systems to manage water resources, constructing canals and levees to divert river water for agricultural use during droughts. They also built storage facilities to hold excess water during flooding, ensuring a stable water supply. Additionally, they practiced crop rotation and selected drought-resistant crops to enhance resilience against varying climate conditions. These strategies allowed them to sustain agriculture and support their civilization despite the challenges posed by their environment.

There is no precipitation during droughts. Water becomes scarce.
Floods could damage crops and soil, leading to significant losses for farmers. Droughts could reduce water supply for irrigation, stunting crop growth and reducing yields. Farmers built irrigation systems such as canals, wells, and dams to bring water to their fields during dry spells or invested in drought-resistant crops to adapt to the changing conditions.

they have deaths and crops fail to grow if it does rain when there is a drought there would be little water to remoisturize the ground.
People most affected by droughts are farmers and anyone who lives on crops grown in the soil. The only way people can recover from droughts is if the rains start again, or they find some other source of water that is available to grow their crops again. If they didn't have enough food or money stored away, then they might not recover.
