Irrigated agriculture accounts for around 70% of global water use.
However, an estimated 60% of irrigated cropland remains highly
water-stressed, a problem intensified by the effects of climate
change. Improving water management in agriculture considers ways of
addressing this challenge. It reviews advances in monitoring and
optimizing irrigation efficiency, ways of retaining and re-using
water resources as well as how farmers can work collaboratively
with other stakeholders to manage watersheds more sustainably. The
book highlights key areas where innovation is required to ensure
that water use is optimised at farm and watershed scales. The book
encourages farmers to reassess their current irrigation models and
implement alternative practices which improve efficiency with a
reduced environmental impact.
