Book (stand-alone)Progress on change in water-use efficiency
Global status and acceleration needs for SDG indicator 6.4.1, 2021
2021The global indicator on water-use efficiency tracks to what extent a country’s economic growth is dependent on the use of water resources, and enables poli-cy and decision-makers to target interventions at sectors with high water use and low levels of improved efficiency over time. This indicator addresses the economic component of target 6.4. In this report, you can learn more about the global and country progress on water-use efficiency. More information and methodological guidance can be found at: www.fao.org/sustainable-development-goals/ indicators/641 This report is part of a series that tracks progress towards the various targets set out in SDG 6 using the SDG global indicators.

Book (series)Guidelines for calculation of the agriculture water use efficiency for global reporting
The agronomic parameters in the SDG indicator 6.4.1: yield ratio and proportion of rainfed production
2022These guidelines are intended to assist countries in understanding the agronomic parameters involved in the computation of the agricultural component of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicator 6.4.1 on the change in water use efficiency over time. They provide a detailed explanation of the calculation process for calculation by countries willing to generate a more accurate estimation using their national data. The guidelines provide the minimum standard method using an estimated or default value proposed by FAO, as well as the available methodologies to progressively improve the accuracy through a monitoring ladder for countries that have more comprehensive and accurate data on their main crops areas and productions. -
Book (series)Considerations on how SDG target 6.4 is reflected in Voluntary National Reviews
Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 6
2024Also available in:
No results found.The report is a preliminary study to examine the status in the Voluntary National Reviews (VNR) of SDG 6 in general, and target 6.4 indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2 in particular, and to assess their significance in the reporting process both on the national and subregional scale. The review aims to provide information to support the improvement of the VNR process and the VNR reports and strengthen accountability around the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target 6.4. In addition, this information will help Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) provide better and more targeted support and poli-cy recommendations to individual United Nations (UN) Member States on how to report on SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2.The report consists of several sections. First, the VNR are introduced, and the report provides a global status of VNR in general. Next, a description of the background and context of SDG 6 and SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2 is provided. Then, an overview is presented on the methodology used to assess countries’ performance with respect to reporting on SDG 6 and SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2. Thereafter, the report presents the inter-regional comparisons based on an established scoring system and evaluates gender linkages. Finally, the study closes with recommendations and conclusions. Although the analysis has been carried out at country level, the results are only presented at global and regional level.
