The level of water stress in Ghana was lowest in the industry sector as of 2020, with 0.41 percent. Although freshwater withdrawal as a share of freshwater resources in the other sectors presented higher values, the latter was considerably lower than 25 percent. According to the indicator, a freshwater withdrawal of 25 percent or more of the renewable freshwater resources presents a water stress situation. Consequently, the presence of high levels of water stress has adverse effects on economic development and food security.
