Water, Agriculture and Aquaculture
A section of Water (ISSN 2073-4441).
Section Information
The section of Water, Agriculture and Aquaculture publishes papers that relate water to production of food and fiber on land or in aquatic environments. The thematic areas covered include, but are not limited to: rain-fed and irrigated production of crops; water and controlled environment agriculture; fish and shrimp farming; modeling studies of the environmental impact of agriculture and aquaculture; and water as a factor in land use/land cover change brought about by agriculture. This section contributes to the theoretical and practical framework that is required to meet increasing global demands for food and fiber under conditions of increasing competition for scarce water resources and in the context of global changes.
