Drought and Erosion Issues: Turkey in Danger!

Drought and erosion have become one of Turkey's biggest environmental challenges. Reservoir levels are rapidly decreasing, threatening agricultural production.
Prof. Dr. Orhan Şen warns that Turkey may face a serious water shortage by 2025. The lack of rainfall could lead to agricultural drought.

In Turkey, the first nine months of 2025 recorded the driest period in the last 52 years. This situation leads to significant declines in agricultural products.
Cities like Ankara and Izmir are experiencing alarming water resource levels. Reservoir levels have dropped to critical levels.

It is crucial to adopt a collective and scientific approach to combat drought. We must take water management seriously.
