Webinar- Agroport South Ukraine 2018: “Saline Agriculture: a practical solution to a global problem”
On 27 July 2018, together with the Dutch embassy in Ukraine, FAO and Institute of Water Problems and Soil Reclamation of NAAS, we organized a webinar - "Saline Agriculture: a practical solution to a global problem", at the Agroport South Kherson 2018 (Ukraine).
Background: The Southern regions of Ukraine are the most affected by the climate change. High temperatures and irregular precipitations require intensive crop irrigation. All these and other factors make arable farming in the South of Ukraine very risky and bring Soil Salinization on top of the challenges which face farmers.
