WATERAGRI - Water retention and nutrient recycling in soils and streams for improved agricultural production

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

The WATERAGRI concept aims to introduce a new framework for the use of small water retention approaches for managing excess and shortage of water as well as better recovery of nutrients from agricultural catchments applying a multi-actor approach. Our vision is to solve agricultural water management and soil fertilisation challenges in a sustainable manner to secure affordable food production in Europe for the 21st century.
