SUMMARY:ASABE Global Water Security for Agriculture and Natural Resources C
 onference
DESCRIPTION:Agriculture accounts for 70% of all water use globally\; up to 
 95% in developing countries. The water demand for agriculture is expected 
 to increase almost 20% to meet the 70% increase in food production needed 
 to feed 9.6 billion people by 2050. Effective and efficient water resource
 s management at various landscape scales\, therefore\, is vitally importan
 t to enhance and sustain agricultural productivity and to protect natural 
 resources.\n\nThe American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineer
 s (ASABE)\, in partnership with the Indian Society of Agricultural Enginee
 rs (ISAE)\, has planned this international conference on Global Water Secu
 rity for Agriculture and Natural Resources\, 3-6 October 2018\, in Hyderab
 ad\, India. The purpose of this conference is to bring farmers\, researche
 rs\, practitioners\, entrepreneurs\, and policy makers together on a commo
 n platform to discuss current and future water security problems\, share r
 esearch\, and discuss creative solutions that can be applicable at various
  scales in different regions. The conference will specifically focus on wa
 ter security for producing food\, fiber\, and energy crops as well as main
 taining water quality and quantity needed for ecosystem health and service
 s.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nMore information is available at: https://asabewater.org/
