   Why does the agricultural sector need more sustainable water sources?

   • The agricultural sector is being driven to explore additional and more sustainable water sources due to changing precipitation patterns (i.e. global warming and climate change) and the growing population putting pressure on water resources, as well as increased competition from sectors such as municipal and industrial uses.
