Zambia was considered to have an abundant water supply for the Southern African region. However, with the growing demand on water for industrial and domestic use, it was expected that Zambia could experience severe water shortages. It was believed the shortage would be exacerbated by industrial pollution spoiling – especially mining and run-off from farmlands.
Zambia experienced water shortages as the limiting factor in many agricultural projects. There was a relatively sufficient amount of clean drinking water, but it was not accessible to all.
