UAE boosts food sector via water talks

The article discusses the role of the United Arab Emirates in supporting global dialogue on water, particularly regarding its main contribution to the future of food production. During the "Global Food Week 2026" and at the Abu Dhabi Conference on Alternative Proteins, officials emphasized that more than 95% of foods depend on freshwater, and agriculture accounts for approximately 70% of water consumption worldwide. With the global population expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, the discussion focuses on enhancing water-use efficiency through smart farming practices, more efficient irrigation technologies, and increased sustainability in protein production. Officials also highlighted the importance of innovation and integration between food and water to achieve more resilient and efficient production. This aligns with the objectives of the UN Water Conference 2026, held in Abu Dhabi, which aims to attract investment and technological solutions to strengthen the resilience of food supply chains and produce more food using fewer water resources.
