Overall, there was a general increase in the three types of water consumption from 1900 to 2000, and the proportion of the water use for agriculture was the highest during this period. The amount of water consumption for agriculture use was set from 500 km3 in 1900 to around 1,000 km3 in 1950, after which it rose significantly to over 3,000 km3 in 2000. However, the use of water for industrial and personal purpose maintained almost similarly and stable during 1900 and 1950.
