Description The global demand for food production will increase becau se of rapid
population growth and increased competition for land and water. The
ever increasing demand for water in agriculture is one of the key limiting
factors for food production. Thus, producing more food for each drop of
water is vital for addressing water scarcity a n d food insecurity. This chapter
provides an overview of integrated aquaculture-agriculture (IAA) that has
great potential to increase food productivity and reduce risks associated
with water scarcity. IAA also provides a wide range of social, economic
and environmental benefits. It is therefore, recognised that IAA produces
'more cropper drop'.
