Title:

Water Buffalo Assists with Irrigation

Description:

Water buffalo may be used to drive the large water wheels that pump water from irrigation canals into the fields. Egypt relies on the River Nile to farm land in the Nile valley. The buffalos are blindfolded to prevent them from getting dizzy while walking in a circle for hours.
