6.4.2 Level of water stress: freshwater withdrawal as a proportion of available freshwater resources in Oceania (excluding Australia and New Zealand), change over time
6.4.1 Change in water-use efficiency over time in Oceania (excluding Australia and New Zealand), progress over time
Water-use efficiency and its components, by sector, for all reporting countries (and areas) in Oceania (excluding Australia and New Zealand) (2021)
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).
