Western
Approximately 1.79 billion cubic meters of water are used annually to irrigate the agricultural lands of the governorate. The terrain of the governorate slopes from east to west with an average elevation difference of two meters. Historically, its agricultural lands have been irrigated through canals branching from the Damietta Branch of the Nile, which flows northwest into the Nile Delta and empties into Lake Burullus. In the 19th century, all of these canals began drawing water from the Monufia Canal instead of directly from the Damietta Branch.
