The World Bank has predicted a serious lack of water across the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA) by 2030.
Water will fall below the required level per person of 500 cubic metres a year.
Tunisia, now in its fourth year without rainfall, is looking at different options.
These include 'desalination' plants, which remove salt, and plants which clean waste water for farming.
Nowadays, Lotfi Atyaoui's farm depends on a processing plant.
Tunisia's first desalination plants were built in the 1970s.
These improved salty water below ground, and then later - in 2018 - the first seawater desalination plant was developed.
At present, 6 percent of the nation's drinking water is provided by 16 plants.
37 lakes supply the rest of Tunisia's water, but now these are just a third full.
Certain uses, such as car washing, have now been banned by the government.
However, the need for more desalination plants is clear.
Unfortunately, these plants generally work on gas, oil or coal, with their negative effect on climate change.
SONEDE, the national water company, believes technology can help.
Now, many MENA countries are trying to modernise their water processing plants.
These may provide one solution to this urgent problem.
