The future of water requires a sustainable, blue path (Farming Portal)

March 12, 2020


Farming Portal (South Africa) reported on water management, gains in efficiency, productivity, and use. The article stated that a recent IFPRI study found that 4.8 billion people – more than half the world’s population – and approximately half of global grain production will be at risk due to water stress by 2050 if status quo, business-as-usual behavior is followed, and that 45% of total GDP ($63 trillion) will be at risk due to water stress by 2050. That’s 1.5 times the size of today’s entire global economy.
