An innovative thematic approach
 
The topics presented in this section follow an innovative approach analyzing the interaction between water and soil resource use and the environment. During the pilot project phase, three topics will be treated: salinization of irrigated areas, quality of water in agriculture, and the reuse of waste water in agriculture.
 
A three step approach
 
The information displayed in this section has been collected, analyzed, and validated by the project partners’ network. Each topic is divided into three levels of information:
  • general scientific or statistical information;
  • correlation between the topic and irrigation focusing on the origins, causes, and consequences;
  • an overview of the existing solutions to solve the problems linked to the topic.
If some case studies are available to illustrate the information displayed in this section, then a direct link accesses the case study stored in the “case studies” section.
