{"product_id":"oil-palms-water-use-marlon-9783384223425","title":"Oil Palm's Water Use: New Measure","description":"Oil palm, a source of palm oil used in countless products, often gets a bad rap for high water consumption. But is the truth more complex? Oil palms themselves thrive on rainfall, using minimal external water. The hidden water use lies in conversion. Establishing plantations often replaces water-absorbing forests, impacting local water cycles. Additionally, processing facilities use water, though some can be recycled. So, oil palm's water footprint is indirect and depends on practices. Sustainable production focuses on responsible land use and water-saving techniques in processing. By understanding the true water impact, we can promote responsible practices for a more sustainable future of palm oil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marlon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 338422342X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783384223425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tredition Gmbh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/09\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d","brand":"Marlon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659542966527,"sku":"9783384223425","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/oil-palms-water-use-marlon-9783384223425","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
