Water Crisis Impacts Aquaculture In Taq Taq - Iraq

TAQ TAQ, Kurdistan Region The escalating water crisis in the Kurdistan Region has transcended the threat to potable water, now systematically dismantling one of the region’s most vital economic pillars: the aquaculture and fish farming sector. In Taq Taq district, a cornerstone of the region's fish production, the plummeting water levels of the Lesser Zab River have triggered a catastrophic die-off of millions of fish, inflicting millions of dollars in losses on investors. An Economic and Environmental Catastrophe The upstream damming of the Lesser Zab’s headwaters by Iran, compounded by the severe impacts of climate change, has caused oxygen levels in Kurdistan’s aquaculture projects to drop to lethal levels. Consequently, farm owners are not only losing their livestock but are also witnessing the erosion of thousands of jobs that rely on this sector.
