Water shortage and in Achaia
The sea has entered the aquifer
County Achaia will be added to the list of areas threatened by
water scarcity this year, as all wells used for irrigation have
brackish water because of the entry of the sea in the
underground aquifer.

Moreover, farmers are forced to carry water from the highlands
and the pumping is at a depth of 300 meters.
