Water Resources In Farming. climate change brings a whole new level of unpredictability to the rainfall that farmers rely on, either to water their crops directly, or to feed the rivers, lakes, ground water and snowpack. but those inventions would be moot without agriculture’s most precious commodity: this emphasises the importance of using tools to assess and monitor water resource utilisation and. it examines the policy experiences of oecd countries in managing their water resources for agriculture, with focus on: water in agriculture is central to feeding the planet, providing livelihoods, and building resilience to climate shocks and extremes. Yet sustainable achievement of these objectives is threatened by growing demand for food and fiber, unsustainable resource use, and ever increasing climate volatility and change. And it, say researchers, is now under threat. fao’s work in water focuses on a more efficient, equitable and environmentally friendly use of water in agriculture. in order to meet global water and agricultural demands by 2050, including an estimated 50% increase in food, the development of groundwater could act as a catalyst for improving agricultural productivity and economic growth by increasing the extent of irrigated areas.
