Abstract: This work provides a statistical analysis of urban water shortages, as well as the direct and indirect impacts of the scarcity of rainfall on agricultural practices in the Isaha watershed, Amoron'o ania Region Madagascar. 78% of the urban population no longer has normal access to drinking water, and 85% of farmers report difficulties with their practices. Paradoxically, according to WEAP modelling, there is sufficient water available. Because of poorly management and other factors considerable loss of water is observed.
