and meanders down through Wadi Fara'a to Jiftlik where it is
transformed from a naturally running stream to a wo/man-made

system is controlled by a time period, i.e. the farmer is
allowed a set number of hours of water over a given period
for the purposes of irrigation. This is rather problematic
since most farmers do not have anywhere to store the water

until such times as it can be used most effectively and
