No distinction between green <strong>and</strong> blue water footprint in the<br />
publication "<strong>Water</strong> footprints <strong>of</strong> nations" by Hoekstra &<br />
Chapagain (2004). The distinction between green <strong>and</strong> blue<br />
water will be available for strawberries approximately in<br />
October 2010. For own calculations <strong>of</strong> green <strong>and</strong> blue water<br />
he recommends to use the method from the book: Hoekstra,<br />
A.Y. & Chapagain, A.K. 2008. Globalization <strong>of</strong> <strong>Water</strong>:<br />
Sharing the Planet's Freshwater Resources. Wiley-<br />
Blackwell. 232 pp. (Appendix I). For the data he<br />
recommends to use CROPWAT, CLIMWAT, <strong>and</strong> yield data<br />
from FAO. He adds the information that irr requirement =<br />
crop water requirement (output from cropwat) minus<br />
effective precipitation AND actual irr depends on irr req <strong>and</strong><br />
whether irr takes place yes/no.<br />
Area: 130'000 ha, About 70-80% are greenhouse culture,<br />
20-30% open field culture. He does not have information on<br />
GHG emissions or quantities <strong>of</strong> water used.<br />
Recommendation: qiujj@caas.net.cn or<br />
qiujj@public3.bta.net.cn<br />
He does not know <strong>of</strong> any LCA literature on GHG <strong>and</strong> water.<br />
Data on water consumption <strong>and</strong> GHG emissions <strong>of</strong><br />
strawberry may exist but in Master or PhD Thesis <strong>and</strong><br />
technical reports <strong>of</strong> the private companies.<br />
