Answer

What water-saving measures could help Mallorca most?

Several measures could make a real difference, especially drip irrigation for agriculture, which uses far less water than traditional sprinklers. Reusing treated greywater for gardens, golf courses and some agricultural uses could also reduce pressure on freshwater supplies. In addition, small rainwater systems and better local storage would make many communities more resilient.
