This layer presents estimation of the mean annual green water footprint of national production for the period 1996-2005. The water footprint is a measure of human’s appropriation of freshwater resources. The green water footprint is the volume of green water (rainwater) consumed, which is particularly relevant in crop production. Estimations are given in million cubic meter per year (MCM/year). Disaggregated data per sectors are available in the table: agricultural production, industrial production and domestic water.A detailed description of the methodology and results can be found in the main report available here: http://temp.waterfootprint.org/Reports/Report50-NationalWaterFootprints-Vol1.pdf For more information, visit the Water Footprint Network website: http://temp.waterfootprint.org/?page=files/WaterStat
