The sewage is a serious problem for some Palestinians living in the Wadi and other from Dir Estia trying to grow oranges and some wheat on land cultivated already before the Israeli occupation in 1967. Before 1967 there was quite a large population in the Wadi, especially during the summer. The Palestinians see the sewage as direct pressure to drive them out of the Wadi. Lately the Nature Reserves Authority introduced 40 wild boar into the reserve which began eating at the wheat fields. Contact Andrew for Details.
