Climate, yields and fertilization data are specific to each of the areas where the crops were grown. The results are compared with previous works in other countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. In the case of Cuba, the results show a difference of 25% with respect to international reports developed with data related to climate and average crops in the country. Other countries in the region have similar levels, although with a smaller gray component and a larger green component. The water footprint from potato crops is also compared with other crops in Cuba, finding that potatoes represent the fourth largest water demand.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="es"><p><![CDATA[Resumen: En el artículo se determina la huella hídrica de la cosecha de la papa en Cuba entre los años 2009 y 2012 utilizando el modelo CROPWAT. Los datos climáticos, de rendimiento y de fertilización son específicos de cada una de las áreas donde se realiza la cosecha y los resultados obtenidos se comparan con los de trabajos anteriores realizados en otros países de América Latina y el Caribe. En el caso de Cuba los resultados muestran diferencias de un 25% respecto a los obtenidos en reportes internacionales elaborados a partir de datos climáticos y de la cosecha promedios del país. Respecto a otros países de la región tienen niveles similares aunque con menor componente gris y mayor componente verde. También se compara la Huella Hídrica de la cosecha de la papa con la de otros cultivos en Cuba estableciéndose que la papa ocupa el cuarto lugar en demanda de agua.]]></p></abstract>
