Global spatially explicit crop water consumption shows an overall increase of 9% for 46 agricultural crops from 2010 to 2020

Agricultural crop production is the largest water user worldwide. Here we compute the blue and green water consumption (WC) of global crop production at 5 arcminutes (~10 km at the equator) for the year 2020, differentiating between 46 crops, using the most recent Spatial Production Allocation Model...
