The table illustrates how much water was used for three purposes across six different countries. Overall, water consumption for agriculture is consistently the highest, while domestic water usage is the lowest among these nations.
In Canada, 279 cubic metres of water were used domestically, while water usage for agriculture and industry was six and four times higher, at 1238 cubic metres and 832 cubic metres, respectively. The water consumption in Russia and Turkey was approximately the same. The water used for agriculture and domestic purposes was 1863 cubic metres and 98 cubic metres in Russia, 1482 cubic metres and 80 cubic metres in Turkey. However, there was a huge difference in industrial water consumption in two countries, 56 cubic metres in Russia and 731 cubic metres in Turkey.
Unlike the three countries above, Australia, China, and the UK had much lower amounts of water used for agriculture, at 741 cubic metres, 806 cubic meters, and 810 cubic metres, respectively. While China and the UK experienced the same pattern in domestic water usage, under 40 cubic metres, 341 cubic metres of water were used domestically in Australia. Additionally, when it comes to industrial water usage, the lowest was China, at 71 cubic metres, then Australia, at 276 cubic metres, and the highest was the UK, at 398 cubic metres
