03:26A agricultura depends heavily on irrigação.
03:29Canals, reservoirs, and pumping stations carry water across dry landscapes to farms, communities, and wetlands.
03:37As demand grows, the challenge is not only how much water is available, but how much reaches its destination.
03:44Water scarcity does not only mean drought.
03:47It means land left behind, fields that cannot be farmed because the irrigation infrastructure does not reach them.
03:54World Bank project has been rebuilding that infrastructure across the Firgana Valley since 2017.
04:01This peach orchard is one result.
04:04The Firgana Valley is one of Pakistan's most important agricultural regions.
04:09But in some districts, an unreliable supply at the start of the growing season can leave farmland without enough water
04:16when it's needed most.
04:40In western Uzbekistan, water travels much farther.
04:45This water comes from Amu Darya River.
04:48The modernized pumping station delivers it to farmers across Navai and Bukhara regions, irrigating more than 300,000 hectares of
04:56land.
04:56Water from the Amu Darya is pumped across the desert through the Amu Bukhara machine canal, a major irrigation system
05:03serving western Uzbekistan.
05:26Once the water has been lifted and transported, the next challenge is preventing it from seeping away before it reaches
05:32farmers.
05:54Farmers downstream say the difference is already visible.
06:23But the system does more than supply agriculture.
06:26Drainage and return flows from irrigated land also feed dinghy school, a wetland of international importance in the Bukhara region.
06:35Recognized under the Ramsar Convention, the lake provides an important resting and wintering site for migratory birds.
06:42This area is involved with the groundwater water, in the field.
06:47Living water and a river called reticulated plants, for the water.
06:52This area is full of water.
06:55This area is a perfect area, but when the water has developed a lot of water from the sea, it
07:02protects from the sea, for the sea.
07:05This area is an unique area for the flying birds, in the sea, for the sea, for the sun, for
07:06the green birds, for the sea and so on.

07:13From mountain springs to desert canons
07:16and wetlands, the system
07:17connects agriculture with the wider
07:19environment. How efficiently
07:21water is moved and used will shape
07:23both farm production and
07:25natural habitats.
07:29From the Gulf to Central Asia
07:31places facing some of the toughest water
07:33challenges are showing just what is
07:35possible, turning seawater into
07:37drinking water, growing more
07:39food with less, bringing new life
07:41to land once written off.
07:43Water scarcity is one of the greatest challenges
07:45of our time, but it's one we
07:47can meet. Every single one of us
07:49every single day has a part
07:51to play.
