    Abstract

    Ensuring food security and reducing poverty for a global population that will grow to 9 billion by 2050 is a challenging task. Increased food production has to come from available, limited water and land resources. Water scarcity is acute, particularly in developing countries like India, China and Thailand where population pressure is high, physical scarcity of water is expected and countries are struggling to eradicate poverty and improve quality of life.
