Water Footprint of crop productions: A review
Science of The Total Environment, 2016Water Footprint is an indicator recently developed with the goal of quantifying the virtual content of water in products and/or services. It can also be used to identify the worldwide virtual water trade. Water Footprint is composed of three parts (green, blue and grey waters) that make the assessment complete in accordance with the Water Footprint ...

Water is the culture environment for fish or other aquatic organisms. It is the physical support, in which they carry out their life functions, such as feeding and excretion. Water properties can be divided into two main categories: physical characteristics, like density and temperature, and chemical characteristics, the concentration of solutes and ...

Water stewardship as an aid to water productivity
2021The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) have predicted from the years 2000 to 2050 the industrial demand for water will increase by 400 %. This manuscript will discuss water stewardship as an aid to water productivity. The benefits of the integration of water stewardship and water productivity will be portrayed in this paper ...

Expectations are that the agricultural sector will have to expand the use of water for irrigation to meet rising food demand, given population and income growth. At the same time, the competition for water resources is growing in many regions. Increasing water productivity in agriculture is widely seen as a critical response to help address these ...

Water extraction: Pure water production
Filtration & Separation, 2007Ken Sutherland looks at the requirements for the production of pure water, both by the public service companies supplying water for drinking, and by the end-users who want a higher quality still. The article examines the markets for the relevant equipment and their prospects.

A Water Pricing and Production Model
IEEE Transactions on Systems Science and Cybernetics, 1970The purpose of the model presented is to maximize the social profitability of a governmental agency by determining prices and production levels of two different sources of water. This maximization is performed subject to both sociopolitical and physical constraints. The nonlinear stochastic model developed is reduced to a linear stochastic model of one

THE EFFECT OF MAGNETIC TREATMENT OF IRRIGATION WATER ON CUCUMBER PRODUCTION AND WATER PRODUCTIVITY
Acta Horticulturae, 2014Magnetic fields are known to induce biochemical changes and could be used as a stimulator for growth-related reactions. The technology of magnetic water has been widely studied and adopted in the field of agriculture in many countries. This study examines whether there are any beneficial effects of magnetic treatment of different irrigation water types

This chapter considers the challenges and opportunities with respect to meeting the demand for rice in the context of a trade-based concept of water, food, and nutrition security. It notes that there is more to rice than just its food value. It also has cultural values and various industrial uses while certain rice schemes have environmental or flood ...

Water is the most important diluent of food solids. As a non-nutrient component, water in foods has several effects on physical properties, on food behaviour in processing, on microbial growth, stability, palatability and overall quality. The importance of water in foods is due to its presence in almost all foods, the dominance of water as a food ...
