INTERREG PROGRAM PROJECTS:

Aquarius 2009 – 2012

The farmer as water manager under changing climatic conditions.
The project focuses on enabling farmers to act successfully as water managers in changing climatic conditions. The project will present water risk management practices that will reduce the consequences of flooding, droughts, water shortage and nutrient transport.
The emphasis on the farmer as a water manager is contributing towards implementing EU policies, such as the Water Framework Directive. The final result of the project is a water management concept to use as a manual for farmers and a set of recommendations on future land and water management planning.
Knowledge Centre for Agriculture is project leader.
