Agriculture is a valid and essential consumer of water. Water is a limited resource, and agriculture already accounts for 70% of water withdrawn by all three sectors (i.e. the agricultural, municipal and industrial), and for 90% of water consumed by these three sectors. Responsible agricultural water management will make a major contribution to future global water security.
