    Most studies in the field of virtual water trade concentrate either on the global, national or sub-national level, or on the water footprint of individual products. This article assesses the virtual water trade in agricultural products between Germany and China during the period 2008–2010. Germany exported 192 million m3 of virtual water to China and imported 801 million m3 from China. Through the bilateral trade, Germany saved 69.8 million m3 water, while China had a net water loss of 469.4 million m3. Thus, the global water loss amounts to 399.6 million m3.
