Threat of Drought in Armenia: Drinking and Irrigation Water Levels in Danger

Due to the scarcity of precipitation during the winter, Armenia is in danger of a drought, writes Haykakan Zhamanak daily.

The level of snow coverage around the Republic is 60% below the season’s norm. That signifies that the large reservoirs have not been filled. According to experts, if there is no heavy snowfall by February 15 and abundant rain in March, Armenia will have serious problems with drinking and irrigation water.
