The hidden water behind everyday products.
Growing, raising, and processing food and goods uses enormous amounts of water that never appears on the product itself — beef, for instance, has a water footprint of roughly 15,000+ liters per kilogram once feed, drinking water, and processing are all counted.
Water footprint factors differ by orders of magnitude between products (vegetables vs. beef, for example) — swapping in the right factor for a specific food or good is the key input this calculator needs from you.

What you entered
Water footprint = mass × water per kg
1 × 15400= 15400 LResult
Water footprint: 15,400 L
Producing this much of this product used approximately 15,400 liters of water.
