Abstract:The Water Footprint (WF) is an indicator used to determine good practices for efficiently using water in human activities.

Likewise, the water stress of irrigation water use is analyzed, linking the blue WF with the volumes of concessions for agricultural use. The results revealed that the mean green WF for Acuitzio is 1… Show more
