Usually he can grow more than one crop each year, but due to the increasing cost of water for farmers, Moskovitz has chosen to only take care of his avocado orchard this summer.\u003cbr/\u003e              Moskovitz says the region he lives in, in Israel's Upper Galilee, has seen less rainfall over the past several years, from 700 millimetres per year, down to around 300 or 400.\u003cbr/\u003e              According to the Water Authority, Israel's official agency for managing the water sector, Israel is in a water crisis after experiencing five consecutive years of drought.\u003cbr/\u003e              \"My dilemma is between vegetables and wheat and what grows in the winter, and the orchards. I need to put a certain amount of water into the avocados. If I don't have it, I don't go and plant wheat, because I would miss water for the avocados,\" he says.\u003cbr/\u003e              \"The avocado tree grows for 20 or 30 years, if I don't water it for one day it gets weak. If I don't water it for a year, 20 years would go down the drain.\"\u003cbr/\u003e              Israel's northern regions have seen changes in both agriculture and nature as a result of the drought. According to officials at the historic Tel Dan nature reserve, the springs will be dry within two months, which could have an impact on tourism in the region.\u003cbr/\u003e              \"The flow now, these months at the beginning of summer, is about 50 per cent of the average, the annual average. And the low quantity has really influenced the nature, the whole habitat, the aquatic habitat in the streams,\" says Hillel Glassman who supervises streams managed by Israel's Nature and Parks Authority.\u003cbr/\u003e              The biblical bodies of waters — pilgrimage sites for baptisms and beach parties alike — are crucial to the survival and stability of Israel, Jordan and the Palestinians. \u003cbr/\u003e              But more and more of the river the ancient Israelites crossed to enter the Holy Land is drying up — the result of climate change, growing populations and the increasing use of its water for agriculture.\u003cbr/\u003e              Israel's government plans to double its desalination capacity over the next 10 to 12 years, and will use this water for household use, farming, and to support natural areas like Tel Dan and the Sea of Galilee. New desalination facilities are planned to be built in the western Galilee and in Soreq in central Israel.\u003cbr/\u003e              But according to Glassman, desalinated water does not work well as a supplement for natural bodies of water. He says he does not want the desalinated water in nature because it is \"very low in minerals\".\u003cbr/\u003e              Maya Jacobs, CEO of Zalul, an environmental advocacy organisation, agrees that desalination is an important aspect of solving Israel's drought, but believes that it cannot be the only solution.\u003cbr/\u003e              \"Putting all our eggs, so to speak, in the same basket, is not a wise thing to do for anybody, especially not for a country,\" Jacobs said.\u003cbr/\u003e              The Jordan River rises as the confluence of several tributaries at the northern end of the Great Rift, a 3,700-mile (6,000-kilometre) tear in the Earth's crust. It flows south into the Sea of Galilee, also known as Lake Kinneret, then meanders 220 miles (360 kilometres) to the lowest place on the planet, the Dead Sea.\u003cbr/\u003e              The Sea of Galilee, Israel's main water source, is less than 1 percent of the size of Lake Ontario, and years of drought have further lowered its surface.\u003cbr/\u003e              Israeli meteorologists predicted in the winter of last year that the coming months would be drier than an average winter, prolonging an already troubling drought.\u003cbr/\u003e              Late last year the water level in the Sea of Galilee stood at 703 feet (214 metres) below sea level, several feet (about a metre) below the point at which ecologists predict damage to the ecosystem and water quality. As of mid-July of this year, the lake sits at 699 feet (213 metres) below sea level, just below the lower red line.\u003cbr/\u003e              Moskovitz wants a solution to the water crisis, but fears that desalination would be too expensive to use on his farmland. He is concerned that the government would transfer the costs to farmers.\u003cbr/\u003e              \"The state of Israel would put the costs on the farmers. We don't have enough, we fight for a single shekel,\" Moskovitz says.\u003cbr/\u003e            \u003cbr/\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e              ASSOCIATED PRESS\u003cbr/\u003e              Kfar Yuval, Israel – 18 July 2018\u003cbr/\u003e              1.
