Water footprints of specific crops, animal, food products and forest products may typically be better captured by the study of the chains of these products with techniques under frameworks such as life cycle assessment (LCA), given the great heterogeneity in water intensities among most of these ...
Cai et al. (2012) used a regional input–output model to calculate the water footprint in Gansu Province and found a reduction in agricultural water use at the regional level is a key measure for lowering the water footprint of agricultural products. Zeng et al. (2012) studied the water ...
This study reports the results of a water footprint (WF) assessment of five types of textiles commonly used for the production of jeans, including two different fibres (cotton and Lyocell fibre) and five corresponding production methods for spinning, dyeing and weaving. The results show that the...

Water footprint and virtual water are the hot topics in the field of international water resources research.This paper attempts to use the concept of virtual water and water footprint to calculate virtual water contents in major agricultural products.Furthermore,based on the relationship of production...
Treating process water and wastewater in such a way that water recycling is possible is becoming increasingly important. Targeted measures can conserve resources, save costs and reduce the water footprint. Learn more Member of EnviroWater Group ...
The young plants coming from nursery represent an input to the agriculture process, thus there is an entrance of indirect water related to irrigation and fertilization in this phase. In nursery facilities, seeds are sown and germinated to be grown in Water footprint accounting For the blue WF,...

The replacement of rice with sugarcane/cassava could potentially reduce the water scarcity footprint by more than half. The shifting of cultivation period when the average rainfall was higher could slightly decrease the amount of total water requirements, whereas the implementation of alternate wet and...
