Saudi Arabia, where the entire earth is sandy and the climate is tropical desert. Oil is found here in large quantities, due to which this country has also become rich, but there is a huge lack of water or say that there is no drinking water in this country. There is neither a single river nor lake. There is a water well but there is no water in it. There is gold here, but there is no drinking water. So now the question arises that from where does Saudi Arabia bring water for drinking. So, let's tell you the surprising thing behind it today.

Only one percent of the land in this country is cultivable and only a few vegetables are grown in it, because to grow crops like paddy and wheat, it will need a lot of water. Although wheat cultivation was started here once, but due to lack of water, it had to be discontinued later. Saudis have to buy all their food and drink from abroad. Saudi Arabia now has very little ground water left and that too is at a very low level, but it is being said that in the coming years it will also be completely finished. According to a report, earlier there were many water wells, which had been in use for thousands of years, but as the population increased, the exploitation of ground water also increased here. As a result of this, gradually the depth of the wells increased and in a few years the wells dried up completely.

However, the most important thing is that it rains here only for a day or two and that too with the storm. It is not possible to store that water, nor is it possible to compensate for the exploitation of ground water. Sea water is made drinkable here. The amount of salt in the sea water is high, so the salt is separated from the sea water by desalination, and then it becomes drinkable. According to a report, Saudi Arabia spends only a part of its uncounted earnings from oil to make sea water drinkable. According to a 2009 figure, at that time it cost 2.57 Saudi riyals i.e. about 50 rupees to separate salt from one cubic meter of water. The cost of transporting also used to be 1.12 rials (more than 20 rupees) per cubic meter. Now this expenditure must also have increased, because the demand for water here is increasing every year.
