“…Although the water requirements for irrigating potatoes are well known, the water requirements for storing, processing, and washing potatoes on the farm before processing are not well understood or reported (Statistics Canada 2010a). Because farmers use water sources that are not connected to water utilities, limited information has been gathered on actual water use (De Loë et al 2001). Filling this knowledge gap is important for guiding science-based conservation targets and understanding water supply and demand to maintain future water availability (De Loë et al 2001).…”

“…The current debate has been on finding ways to minimize the amount of water used in the agriculture sector by using adequate agronomic and irrigation practices that conserve water, but do not undermine crop water requirements (Loë et al, 2001;Yihun, 2015). The system of rice intensification (SRI) has been identified as an on-farm water management practice that increases both land and water productivity at a relatively low cost while also conserving the environment (Stoop et al, 2002;Uphoff, 2006).…”
