Groundwater is a key resource used in the production of goods and services, particularly in agricultural production. In turn, agriculture is enmeshed in a globalized food system with international trade. There is ongoing debate in the literature about whether international trade increases or decreases water use. Scholars have examined this question from a few different yet complementary perspectives, including water footprint analysis, parsimonious statistical methods, and comprehensive simulation modeling. This paper brings together findings from across these disparate communities to assess the current state of knowledge on the relationship between trade and groundwater use. To do this, this paper clarifies the key components of the groundwater-trade system and presents the relative strengths and weaknesses of different approaches in addressing different aspects of the groundwater and trade system.
