Sindh farmers face setbacks on low water flows in canals Business May 4, 2021 HYDERABAD: Farmers working the fields in Tando Muhammad Khan district are receiving water from perennial Akram Wah (canal) on a rotation-based system because of overall water scarcity in the canals and watercourses this season. Although a weekly system is implemented during this season whenever there is a shortage of water, it has been observed that nowadays farmers are getting their water share after a fortnight or 21 days instead of weekly basis. This long wait creates problems for farmers, some of whom are unable to save their sensitive crops.
