water
in six parts of the world.
Overall
, it can be seen that most of the

supplies are used for agricultural purposes, except in Europe and North America, where the major proportion is linked with industrial use. Domestic utilization has the lowest percentages in all those areas. Central Asia takes the first place in agricultural usage of
water
with 88%, strictly followed by Africa and South East Asia with 84% and 81%, respectively.
This
,
