The Algarve's interior is taking significant steps to address drought challenges and enhance agricultural production through new irrigation management contracts. The CCDR Algarve has signed agreements covering 140 hectares of irrigated land, focusing on efficient water use and strengthening the region's response to prolonged dry spells.
This initiative is part of a broader effort to ensure sustainable water management in agriculture, a critical sector for the Algarve's economy. By adopting more efficient irrigation techniques, the region aims to reduce water waste and increase crop yields, ensuring the long-term viability of farming in the area.
The contracts represent a collaborative approach between local authorities and farmers, highlighting the importance of adaptation and innovation in the face of climate change. This move is expected to serve as a model for other regions grappling with similar environmental challenges.
