N2 - This Special Issue covers RWH in areas of water savings, household agriculture, and stormwater management. RWH systems can notably contribute to household agriculture/irrigation. In this regard, Velasco-Munoz et al. [15] presented the dynamics of global research on RWH for irrigation purposes. They noted that the research on this field has been increasing, with environmental, agricultural, and biological sciences being the dominant disciplines covering irrigation using harvested rainwater. The leading countries in this research field include India, China, the United States, South Africa, and the Netherlands. The authors noted that crop variety, farmer’s adaptability, and financial viability of RWH are areas that require further research to make RWH more popular.
