The natural conditions of ancient Egypt are unfavorable for agriculture.

In Egypt, there were various climatic conditions for farming and livestock raising. But in most cases, the population had to independently arrange space for farming and agriculture. The difficult conditions were caused by an arid climate, a low amount of fertile land and water. The population had to create irrigation systems in order to water their crops during periods of drought and water loss. When the Nile came out of the banks, the excess water had to be controlled on the contrary.
