The irrigation system of the Indus Valley Civilization was likely destroyed due to a combination of environmental changes and geological events. Shifts in climate, including prolonged droughts, could have led to decreased river flow and agricultural productivity. Additionally, tectonic activity may have caused changes in river courses and sediment deposition, further disrupting the established irrigation networks. These factors combined would have severely impacted the region's agriculture and contributed to the decline of the civilization.

Name the four river valleys that gave birth to early civilizations?
One is monsoons which destroyed crops, and another is that farmers in the Indus Valley could only plant crops in the areas where the water from the Indus was direct.

Pakistan has the largest canal irrigation system in the world, known as the Indus Basin Irrigation System. It is fed by the Indus River and its tributaries, covering a vast area of agricultural land in Pakistan.

They used Canals.
The Indus Irrigation System is a complex network of canals and waterways that supports agriculture in the Indus River Basin, primarily in Pakistan and parts of northwest India. Developed during the ancient Indus Valley Civilization, it has been enhanced over centuries to manage water resources efficiently for irrigation. The system relies on the seasonal monsoon and snowmelt from the Himalayas, enabling the cultivation of crops in an otherwise arid region. Today, it remains one of the world's largest irrigation systems, crucial for food production and the economy of the region.
There were rivers, valleys, land and many other characteristics that were in the Indus River Valley
The Nile River Valley and the Indus River Valley.
when India diverted the water to the the rajastan desert after partition there was no dam to improve the irrigation in punjab, bahawalpur and lower indus. thus 8 million acres of land in Pakistan were affected by this loss of irrigation water. so to give pakistan the irrigation water indus water treaty was necessary
the Indus river is for irrigation transportation
