4 Water resource development and management n Tunsa Water resources n Tunsa are scares not unformly dstrbuted and hghly wthdrawn Water wthdrawal has reached the water potental especally for groundwater The drect demand drnkng water ndustry toursm s ncompressble and ncreases wth the populaton but stll moderate An mportant part of «Blue Water» s used n agrculture : As water supply stablzes agrcultural water allocatons wll be reduced. Ths s the key queston that determnes the water polcy n Tunsa
5 Blue Water for Irrgaton BW Trends n agrcultural water use Drect water uses collectvtes toursm ndustry - Represent around 20 % of water uses - Beneft from a prorty n the water allocaton Irrgated Agrculture - Uses more than 80 % of water. - Occupes 1/10 of cultvated areas - Produces 1/3 of food producton Ranfed Agrculture - Occupes 9/10 of cultvated areas - Produces 2/3 of food producton n value -- has not receved as much attenton as rrgated agrculture

7 Water and food securty ssues n Tunsa Irrgaton has been the key of agrculture development. An mportant part of wthdrawal water «Blue Water» s used n agrculture more than 80%. Ranfed agrculture «reen Water» plays an mportant role n food securty. It takes an mportant part n food trade balance. But ranfed agrculture has not receved the same attenton as rrgated agrculture and ts contrbuton s not drectly taken nto account n the global balance of water resources Imports of cereals edble ol and other basc foodstuffs «Vrtual Water» s requred to fll the defct of the local producton. The part of Vrtual Water s already mportant and t s expected to ncrease sgnfcantly. How mprove Food Securty? Should frst mprove the knowledge of the dfferent contrbutons to the provson of food

24 Conclusons The development of rrgaton sector s lmted by the avalablty of water: rrgated agrculture s ncreasng ts effcency and promotng better use of water. The potental of reen Water s large. Its development requres the mplementaton of a coherent strategy to promote the sector of ranfed agrculture vulnerable to ranfall varablty: 1. Development of techncal tools for better assessment of the reen Water resource n order to make t more vsble: dentfcaton mappng etc. 2.
