Yemen is experiencing severe water shortages for both agricultural production and human use since it is one of the most water-scarce countries in the world. The combination of a water shortage and the negative impacts of climate change in Yemen, including low and intermittent rainfalls and droughts over the last few decades, has aggravated water scarcity.
