Why is the Sea of Galilee important for Israel’s water supply?

The Sea of Galilee is a crucial freshwater reservoir for Israel. It supplies drinking water and irrigation for agriculture in northern Israel. The National Water Carrier system transports water from the lake to other regions. The lake’s water levels are carefully monitored to maintain ecological balance and meet demand. Seasonal rainfall and snow in the surrounding mountains affect its levels. Sustainable management ensures that the Sea of Galilee remains a vital resource for both human use and wildlife. It supports local ecosystems and regional agriculture.
