Workshop on Agriculture and Water Management
According to the outcomes of the Danube and Tisza River Basin Management Plans, a dialogue among stakeholders from the agricultural sector together with water managers on the inter-linkages between agriculture and water management (agriculture and environment) should be initiated.
- WHAT is the relevance of agriculture sector in the Danube and Tisza River Basins and which are the main pressures from the agricultural activities impacting the quality and quantity of waters of the river basins?
- HOW the implementation of the EU policies and directives facilitate the reduction of pressures due to agricultural activities in water ecosystems? (e.g. role of Nitrate Directive, EAFRD etc.)
- WHICH are the agricultural measures currently implemented?
- WHY a dialogue between the actors of agriculture and water management sectors are crucial and how the dialogue between stakeholders – also including business sector – can facilitate the improvement of the status of the waters in long term?
The workshop is aiming to discuss these questions and to facilitate the dialogue between stakeholders of agriculture and water management.
