Water efficiency is the practice of reducing water consumption by measuring the amount of water required for a particular purpose and is proportionate to the amount of essential water used. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Water efficiency differs from water conservation in that it focuses on reducing waste, not restricting use. [ 3 ]
EPA water sense high efficiency certified toilets use 1.28 GPF or less while still providing equal or superior performance to higher water use alternatives. [ 11 ] Other toilet alternatives such as air assisted toilets, and foam-flush toilets use only a small amount of water but are currently not in widespread use.
field level : based on measurements of CO 2 and water fluxes over a field of a crop or a forest, using the eddy covariance technique [4] Research to improve the water-use efficiency of crop plants has been ongoing from the early 20th century, however with difficulties to actually achieve crops with increased water-use efficiency.
