Water use and scarcity
Water resources and withdrawal in Botswana, total and per capita
Long-term average annual precipitation in depth: 416 (mm/year) (2020)
Renewable water resources: 5,340 m3 per capita (2017)
Water withdrawal: 88 m3 per capita (2016)
Environmental flow requirements: % of the renewable water resources ()
6.4.2 Level of water stress: freshwater withdrawal as a proportion of available freshwater resources in Botswana, change over time, compared to other countries (and areas) in the region
6.4.1 Change in water-use efficiency over time in Botswana, by sector (2020)
Water-use efficiency for ‘Agriculture, forestry and fishing’ only takes into account the proportion of gross value added that comes from irrigated agriculture, since that activity is associated with water withdrawal (other activities are rain-fed).
