Download or read book Drinking Water Supply and Agricultural Pollution written by G.J. Schrama and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural pollution (with nitrates and pesticides) is one of the biggest threats to drinking water resources. At many places regional and local water authorities, together with the water supply industry, are involved in preventive action aimed at farming practices. Three national case studies (Germany, The Netherlands, and the United Kingdom) analyse these efforts within the context of problematical national agricultural policy and the need to implement EU directives on water quality. Additional case studies cover the role of the European Union, while the same problem in a different setting is analysed for the United States. The central question of how national and European governments can reinforce the control capacity of the actors at the regional and local level, is treated from the theoretical perspective of the policy network approach.

Download or read book Potential of drinking water alliances to address nitrate pollution – Experiences from Germany written by Scheumann, W., Richerzhagen, C. and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2022-08-12 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides background to the State of the World’s Land and Water Resources for Food and Agriculture Report, Edition 2021 (SOLAW 21) with an innovative governance approach to addressing non-point pollution sources originating from agricultural activities: alliances between water utilities and farmers in designated water protection areas and drinking water extraction areas. The alliances revolve around the idea of balancing diverging targets such as maintaining drinking water standards and the viability and profitability of agricultural businesses. While farmers can achieve high food production levels by using mineral and organic fertilizers and pesticides, these may have enormous side effects: nitrate and phosphate are transferred into surface and groundwater, impairing water quality and aquatic life. It may also result in the water no longer being usable as drinking water without special, costly treatment. These negative effects led to the establishment of voluntary alliances between water utilities and farmers (hereafter called ‘drinking water alliances’ or ‘alliances’) in the 1980s when the German government strengthened the threshold values for nitrate in drinking water from 90 mg/l to 50 mg/l. Water utilities, together with the regional (Laender) governments, initiated alliances with farmers to adopt fertilization and land management practices in order to protect drinking water resources from nitrate pollution.

Download or read book Application of Vegetation Science to Grassland Husbandry written by W. Krause and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WERNER KRAUSE INTRODUCTION GENERAL COMMENTS ON THIS VOLUME The subject" Application of vegetation science to grassland husbandry" is not limited by geographical boundaries. It is pro posed to cover this subject in an internationally applicable work of reference. However, to avoid omissions it would have to em brace all the diversity of grassland from the Arctic to the Equa tor. The term "application" requires that the papers contained herein take into account both generally relevant scientific knowl edge and the special needs of practical farming. The latter are not satisfied solely by the laws of vegetation science; the changing effects of the market, politics, the distribution of wealth and poverty, highly developed technology and the continued use of archaic farming methods must all be considered. To try to cover all this adequately in one volume of ap proximately 550 pages is a hopeless task. The editor and the authors had to limit themselves to presenting a selection of prob lems and attempts to solve them, with the aim that these exam ples should indicate how much vegetation science can contribute to grassland husbandry, and the scope of this contribution is broadened by the references quoted. The arrangement of the sections within this volume does not lend itself to specific suggestions for the management of individual systems. However, grassland husbandry can expect to obtain from this work an'insight into some overall general rela tionships, which could assist the adviser in the formulation of more specific improvement plans.

This book was released on 2022-06-15 with total page 1224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hundert Nutztierrassen in den Alpenländern sind akut gefährdet – so lautete das wichtigste Ergebnis einer Studie über die «Landwirtschaftlichen Genressourcen» des Alpenbogens aus den Jahren 1992/93. Alarmierend an diesen Befunden war vor allem die Tatsache, dass in vierzig Prozent der Fälle keinerlei Erhaltungsinitiativen ergriffen worden waren. Nun liegt eine Aktualisierung der Studie für die Jahre 2000/2001 vor, in die neu auch die Situation der Kulturpflanzen mit einbezogen wurde. In den verschiedenen Alpenländern, von Frankreich bis Slowenien, haben sich seit der ersten Studie nicht nur die Zahlen der Restpopulationen geändert, sondern auch die rechtlichen und politischen Rahmenbedingungen. In der Publikation der Bristol-Stiftung ist nun der Synthesebericht der umfangreichen Studie in fünf Sprachen abgedruckt: Englisch, Deutsch, Französisch, Italienisch und Slowenisch. A hundred livestock breeds in the Alpine countries are acutely endangered. This was the most important finding of a study on "agricultural genetic resources" in the Alps in 1992/93. Especially alarming was the fact that, in 40% of cases, there appeared to have been no attempts to conserve the endangered breeds. This study has now been updated for 2000/2001, with cultivated plants also included. Since the first study not only have the sizes of the remnant populations changed, but so too have the legal and political conditions in these Alpine countries, ranging from France to Slovenia. This Bristol Foundation publication contains a summary report of the detailed study in five languages: English, German, French, Italian and Slovenian.

Download or read book Agricultural Use of Groundwater written by Cesare Dosi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Groundwater is endangered and polluted in several ways. Conservation and better management of this invisible resource should be a key ingredient of sustainable water policies. This is especially true in areas, such as many Mediterranean regions, which are already exposed to scarcity problems and which are likely to experience increasing competition between freshwater uses and users. Agriculture is an important user of groundwater not only in terms of abstractions, but also in terms of generation and release of pollutants. Agricultural policies, traditionally directed towards other objectives, are beginning to pay more attention to environmental considerations. However more effective initiatives are required to reduce the pressure upon groundwater resources and to achieve a better integration between agricultural and environmental policies. This book has been developed from three workshops held as part of the EU Concerted Action SAGA, "Sustainable Agricultural Use of Aquifers in Southern Europe: Integration between Agricultural and Water Management Policies" (FAIR5-CT97-3673). The Concerted Action and the workshops brought together researchers working in different but complementary fields, in order to get a picture of the state-of-the art about interlinkages between agriculture and groundwater, as well a critical review of alternative regulatory approaches and policy instruments aimed at improving groundwater management.

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with voluntary approaches between farmers and water suppliers as an instrument to meet environmental standards, impacted by agricultural activities, more economically efficient and environmentally effective than by exclusive application of alternative instruments including command-and-control approaches. The book is based largely on the results of the research project 'Co-operative Agreements in Agriculture as an Instrument to Improve the Economic Efficiency and Economic Effectiveness of the European Water Policy', which was supplemented for specific issues by key experts. The research was partly funded by the European Commission under the Specific RTD Programme in the Field of Environment and Climate (Contract No. ENV4-CT98-0782) and partly by the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries in the Netherlands, the Environment Agency in England and Wales, the UK Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and the Government of the German Bundesland North Rhine Westphalia. Additional funds for preparing the book were obtained from the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries in the Netherlands. The financial and technical support received from the different organisations is gratefully acknowledged. The editors appreciate very much the efforts the authors have made in preparing their contributions for the book and for the secretarial assistance provided by Mrs. Tessa van Dongen from LEI who took responsibility for guiding the publication process and preparing the chapters of the book. We also appreciate the support given by Mrs. Henny Hoogervorst and Mrs. Gloria Verhey (Kluwer Academic Publishers).
