Introduction
Groundwater is an essential freshwater resource stored in underground reservoirs called “aquifers”. “These aquifers supply drinking water to over two billion people, and around 70% of withdrawals are used for agriculture. However, more than half of the world’s major aquifers are being depleted faster than they can be naturally replenished. As groundwater accumulates over thousands of years, it is essentially a non-renewable resource.
The tipping point in this case is reached when the water table falls below a level that existing wells can access. Once crossed, farmers will no lon ..read more

Water, the key element for humanity to survive and flourish, is today a very scarce commodity, mainly due to rampant wastage, deforestation and climate change. It is the source of life on our planet and the single most essential resource for agriculture which consumes over 70 percent of the naturally available fresh water. Unfortunately, the availability of water is not endless and many regions today suffer from an acute shortage. Over 1/5 of the world’s population lives under severe water constraints, and this percentage is increasing yearly.
For agriculture, the lack of this pre ..read more
