Abstract: "Clear signs of a water-deficit driven import of cereals – so called virtual water flow – and intensifying water stress in the semi-arid tropics suggest a major switch in global food trade. Food production in water rich regions may come to play an increasing role to alleviate hunger in water-short countries."
