Flooding in the Nile historically provided fertile silt, crucial for agriculture, benefiting settlements along its banks. However, excessive or unpredictable flooding can lead to destruction of crops, homes, and infrastructure, displacing communities. In recent times, the construction of dams has altered natural flood patterns, impacting traditional farming practices and water availability, which can strain local economies and resources. Consequently, settlements must adapt to these changes to ensure sustainable livelihoods.
