abstract = "The Western Bahia, Brazil, is spatially located within the
S{\~a}o Francisco river basin and encompasses a rich hydrographic
network and large flat lands suitable for irrigated cropping.
Although is an environmental and economical relevant region in
Brazil, it lacks of scientific information to support strategies
and policy definition for sustainable water and land management.
This study aimed to better understand the effects of deforestation
on natural resources in Western Bahia. Our research included
analysis on the effects of agricultural expansion, focusing on
irrigated fields in the study region. We observed that an
additional 29 irrigation pivots were established if compared to
2013 dataset produced by the National Water Agency. It indicates
that there was an increase in irrigation water demand from the
tributaries of the S{\~a}o Francisco river basin (superficial and
underground water). We estimated that agriculture lands encompass
30.4% of the study region, a total of 34,117.6 kmē, by 2015.
Irrigated fields encompass 1.7% of the study area, a total of
1,874.4 kmē by 2015. The climate change studies predict a
long-term increase in temperature (5 °C) and decrease in
precipitation (15%), which it is likely to reduce even more water
supplies in the study region. Based on it, we expect that the
study region will experience a strong water deficit in the coming
decades because of predicted increase of water demand and decrease
of water supplies. Altogether, it may require strong climate
adaptations of human activities in the study region.",
