Highlights
• We explore the water-energy-food nexus for EU farmland investments.
• We estimate virtual water from crop production in the target countries.
• Virtual water is mostly green water consisting of 76% of the total water acquired.
• We analyse freshwater use between flexible, food and energy crops.
• Flexible/energy crops are responsible for most of the water acquired by EU investors.
