Water Footprint of Common Agricultural Products
Understanding Global Water Scarcity
Calculate the water usage of various products and become more conscious about your consumption.
The production of 1 kg of corn requires approximately 900 liters of water. Sustainable farming practices can reduce this number significantly.
Soybean cultivation requires about 2,300 liters of water per kg. It is essential to manage water resources effectively in regions where soybean is a major crop.
Simple actions like fixing leaks, using water-saving appliances, and mindful gardening can significantly reduce your household water footprint.
Choosing products from farms that practice water-efficient farming, crop rotation, and soil conservation can help reduce the global water footprint.
California has implemented several water-saving initiatives, including advanced irrigation techniques, to reduce water usage in agriculture.
A crop water footprint provides a comprehensive assessment of water resource utilization efficiency in agricultural systems by considering the total water required during the crop growth cycle [5,6]. Compared to the traditional methods of analyzing agricultural water use, a crop water footprint can more accurately quantify the water demand of crops and provide data-based recommendations for agricultural water resource management [7,8,9]. In 2002, Hoekstra introduced the concept of the water footprint [10] and calculated the water footprint for each nation of the world for the period 1997–2001.
