Forests cover approximately 26.2% of the world, with 45.7% of Latin America and the Caribbean being covered, 35% of East Asia and the Pacifi c, and 35% of the European Union. Canada and...
متن کاملSynthetic- and bio-polymer use for runoff water quality management in irrigated agriculture.
Low concentrations of synthetic- or bio-polymers in irrigation water can nearly eliminate sediment, N, ortho- and total-P, DOM, pesticides, micro-organisms, and weed seed from runoff. These environmentally safe polymers are employed in various sensitive uses including food processing, animal feeds, and potable water purification. The most common synthetic polymer is anionic, high purity polyacr...
متن کاملPotential Water Use Conflicts Generated by Irrigated Agriculture in Rhode Island
In recent years agricultural practices in New England have undergone dramatic changes. Traditional dryland crops such as potatoes and silage corn have been replaced by irrigated “landscape” crops; specifically turf and nursery crops. For example, commercial sod production in Rhode Island has risen from 200 acres in 1972 to over 2,500 acres in 1986, while potato acreage has shown a similm declin...
متن کاملMapping and analysis of pressures on water resources from agriculture to target water and agriculture policies
11 A recent work carried out by CREA (ex INEA) compared spatial analysis of the main problems 12 concerning the use of water resources for irrigation in Italian River basin districts (RBD) with the 13 policy measures for water resources and agriculture, in order to verify the relevance of planning 14 to address specific regional sensitivities. The bases for the policy analysis was River basin 1...
