In the most north-western part of Vojvodina, the aquifer system is frequently shared with neighbouring Hungary and has not been sufficiently examined so far. The main groundwater consumers are cities and industries of Subotica, Sombor, Backa Topola, Bajmok, and Kanjiza. Evidence of over-exploitation is palpable. In addition to extraction for municipal and industrial water, groundwater is also used ...
