Agriculture is part of the historic culture in the flathead watershed and
continues contributes to its economic diversity unfortunalety some agricultural practices can also results in a significant source of pollution.Many things can be done to
reduce agriculture's potentially negative impacts on the watershed.The Jordan River orignates on the border of three countries,Israel,Lebanon,and Syria in a mountainous region. For the rest of the southern flow 32 consideraly smaller when compared to the Nile with a flow or 74,000 or theEuphtopia at such mcm each year.
