The drought conditions plaguing farmers across the country also affect Hardap Irrigation Scheme farmers, who have had water supply to their irrigation plots suspended this week.

This is due to critically low water levels in the Hardap Dam. 

Farmers at the Hardap Irrigation Scheme are worried about the critically low levels of the Hardap Dam due to poor rainfall in the area.

They say if the dry conditions continue, it may have an adverse impact on the irrigation scheme that relies on water for production.
