Water for Food

Water for Food The World Bank Group supports countries to transform agricultural water management—boosting productivity, building resilience, improving livelihoods, advancing equity, and protecting natural systems, to feed a growing population on a livable planet. https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/climate-resilient-irrigation Water is essential for food production and a cornerstone of global food security. Yet, at current levels of performance, agricultural water systems can sustainably feed only 3.4 billion people—far below the 10 billion people projected to inhabit the planet by 2050.
