Abstract
The concept of water consumption for growth and development of human race over the world, is a age-old problem. Further, population growth, economic growth, dietary-shift, industrial setup etc. demand more water. Among the above facts, agricultural production and food processings are the major consumer of water. To visualize the present setup of water requirement and demand for future, this present piece of work has been undertaken. This review work presents a brief review of the water footprint of crop production and food processing and the sustainability of the blue water footprint. The estimated global consumptive (green+blue) water footprint ranges from 5938 to 8508 km3/year. The water footprint is projected to increase by as much as 22% due to climate change and land use change by 2090.Approximately 57% of the global blue water footprint is shown to violate the environmental flow requirements. At present it is highly essential to improve the sustainability of water and project ecosystems that depend on it. Awareness should be created among the people for increasing the water productivity, setting benchmarks, setting caps on the water footprint river basins, shifting the diets to food items in the lower water requirement and checking the food waste, through government organization, NGOs, public sectors and road- shows
