Title
Abstract
<p style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:16px">Agriculture is the major employment provider in India. But if the current food export policy continues India could fail to meet its water requirement in less than 300 years and could run out of available water in less than 500 years. India is amongst the world’s largest unconscious exporters of Virtual Water which is the fresh water embedded in commodities. A country that exports water intensive crops or products, is in effect exporting the water needed to grow it. India needs to consider the export of virtual water through trade of water-intensive agricultural products. This is essential to safeguard the indispensable resource like water.</span></p>
