A study analysed the role played by informal stakeholders in agricultural supply chains irrigated using groundwater in North Africa. The results, published in Hydrogeology Journal , show that such players are often the catalysts of the expansion of this type of irrigated agriculture. It is therefore particularly appropriate to involve them in sustainable aquifer management. On World Water Day, it is important to remember that groundwater is a major factor in managing water resources worldwide.
