• Use of BBF increased water demand, but reduced
  evaporation loss
• BBF increased WP with respect to effective rainfall
• Growing rice instead of grass-pea or grazing increased
  water demand, but reduced evaporation
• Use of BBF on drainable and rice on flat land increased

  • 7. • Use of BBF increased water demand, but reduced evaporation loss • BBF increased WP with respect to effective rainfall • Growing rice instead of grass-pea or grazing increased water demand, but reduced evaporation • Use of BBF on drainable and rice on flat land increased Economic Water Productivity
