Agricultural Waste to Revenue

Water supply and water quality degradation are global concerns that will intensify with increasing water demand, the unexpected impacts of extreme events, and climate change; for this reason, worldwide, marginal-quality water will become an increasingly important component of agricultural water supplies, particularly in water-scarce countries. Therefore, water management is fundamental for safe global food production, as water scarcity is now becoming a prime concern in many regions of the World. Water scarcity is putting stress on agricultural practices because irrigation is the largest beneficiary of freshwater use.
