| Zusammenfassung |
| The decreasing availability of water caused by depletion and climate change
combined with a growing world population requires the productive use of
water now and in the future. The young researcher group
"AgroHyd" at the Leibniz-Institute for Agricultural
Engineering Potsdam-Bornim (ATB) is currently modeling the water demand for
agricultural processes at the farm scale and developing indicators to link
the hydrological and agricultural perspectives. The aim of the group is to
increase productivity in agriculture by raising water productivity in plant
production and livestock farming. The effects of various agronomic measures,
individual and in combination, on water productivity are assessed using
several indicators. Scenarios of agricultural measures, climate and diets
are used to test to what extent the water demand for food production will
increase due to growing global change in different regions of the world. |
