Farmers and agribusinesses have long wrestled with a silent threat beneath their fields: nitrate pollution in groundwater. A new study from Hebei University, published in Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, offers a breakthrough that could reshape h

In the heart of Colombia’s Orinoquía region, where agriculture thrives under the equatorial sun, a team of researchers has built a tool that could redefine how farmers manage water—a critical resource in an era of climate variability. The device is a

A study introduces a digital approach to assess water storage in coal mine goafs, providing valuable data for effective reservoir management in mining.

Israel reuses 85% of its treated effluent for irrigation, Spain prices reclaimed water at a fraction of desalination costs, and the EU's Class A reuse standard has been law since 2020, not 2026. The market forecasts miss most of this. The post Agricultural Water Reuse: How Treated Wastewater Is Becoming Farming’s Next Water Source appeared first on iGrow News .

Reverse osmosis plants running on seawater have a combined installed capacity of about 30.6 million cubic metres a day worldwide. Plants running the same technology on brackish water account for another 17.8 million, according to a global assessment of desalination capacity published in the journal Desalination. That second figure is more than a third of...

For decades, Egypt’s coastal drylands have teetered on the edge of a water crisis, where every drop counts and the land’s ability to sustain life often feels like a finely balanced act. Now, a new study published in *Scientific Reports* offers a clea

In the semi-arid heartland of Madhya Pradesh, where the Chambal River carves its path through hard rock terrain, farmers are increasingly turning to groundwater to sustain their crops. But as borewells dig deeper and aquifers dwindle, the search for

This story was originally published by The Salt Lake Tribune on August, 12, 2026. After years of analysis and stalled negotiations, the federal government last month finally laid out its proposal for managing the Colorado River’s biggest reservoirs for the next decade. The Bureau of Reclamation still needs to release its final decision and an […] The post ‘Pain and suffering’: What the feds’ Lake…

In many Mexican cities, drinking water has not simply disappeared from public life; it has been reorganized through a dense economy of substitution. It arrives by truck, in plastic bottles, in twenty-liter garrafones, through rooftop tanks, domestic filters, purification shops, informal deliveries, and routines of storage that turn access to water into an everyday practice of calculation. What ap…
