Notes: Population 1000's. Israel municipal consumn.(1986)=104 cm/p/yr,should be reduced to 60 as Jordan. Present West Bank @37.5 due to occupation.








In the above,60 cm/p/yr is used if Palestinians return; otherwise 104 cm/p/yr.








Israel Industrial growth @ 2.92% pa from 1958-86. Same amount is used above + 25% for Palestinians use.








Israel agriculture uses extravagant 860 m3/donum/yr (1951-55), reduced to 550(1986-90). Annual use=900 (guaranteed)+300 (depending on rainfall).








Cut-off @1400. Agriculture must be industrialised thereafter.
