Water is present in everything we eat. It often goes unseen, yet it is essential for growing, processing, transporting, and preparing every ingredient that reaches our tables. From a cup of coffee to a fresh salad or a plate of rice, water is at the heart of global gastronomy. Today, in an increasingly interconnected world, this relationship between water and food takes on new dimensions, ...
Citrus greening, more widely recognized as Huanglongbing (HLB), is caused by the bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, has emerged as one of the most destructive threats to citrus production worldwide. Since 2019, this disease has ravaged citrus industries worldwide, destroying approximately 75% of orange and 85% of grapefruit production in affected regions. It severely stunts tree ...
Farmers constantly pursue innovative technologies to improve crop quality and yield in today’s ever-evolving agricultural landscape. Ozone systems have emerged as a game-changing solution in agriculture, offering myriad benefits. The ozone process not only purifies water and improves yield but also prevents mineral deposits from forming in pipes, leaving no chemical residue. This ...
From a global standpoint, 70% of the world’s fresh water supply is used for agriculture irrigation. We need to increase the amount of food by 70% by 2050 just to keep pace with population growth. ...

Constructing a reasonable evaluation index system is important for characterizing water and land resources and for ecological restoration. To solve random and incomplete problems using a traditional evaluation index system, a novel model for evaluating regional agricultural water resources using a resilience index system was proposed. In addition, a new method for an evaluation index system ...
While the prevailing rationale for new irrigation technology adoption is improved water use efficiency, this study evaluated trade-offs between water savings, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and economic gain associated with the conversion of a furrow irrigation system to a sprinkler irrigation (lateral-move) system on a cotton farm in eastern Australia. Trade-offs were evident when conversion ...
An integrated System Dynamics Model for the water-stressed Rosetta region, Egypt, assessing water balance, and agricultural yield and revenue to 2050, is presented. The study uses 57 simulations to better understand impacts on water, food and economic security and their interactions, in order to highlight potential pathways towards a more sustainable future for the Rosetta region. Current water ...
