Development of crosslinked flexible bio-based and biodegradable pipe and drippers for micro-irrigation applications (HYDRUS)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"The Southern Accession countries and Southern EU countries use the largest percentages of abstracted water for agriculture (75 % and 50 %, respectively), primarily for irrigation. This means consume of 120.000 Millions of m3/year of water. The use of micro irrigation system can reduce the water consume in near 60%, i.e., reduction in consume of 70.000 millions of m3/year. Furthermore, this market ...
