MODELLING AND TECHNOLOGICAL TOOLS TO PREVENT SURFACE AND GROUND-WATER BODIES FROM AGRICULTURAL NON-POINT SOURCE POLLUTION UNDER MEDITERRANEAN CONDITIONS

The general objective of NPS-SOL is to prevent diffuse pollution of water resources due to non-point agricultural pollutants under the Mediterranean soil and environmental conditions, according to the objectives of the new Green Deal and Farm-to-Fork strategies.

NPP-SOL will integrate site-specific best management practices for improving soil, water, fertilizers, and crop management with site-tailored and affordable-costs technologies for preventing natural bodies pollution. Common to all the adopted methodologies-technologies will be their sustainability and economic efficiency, and their adherence to circular economy approaches.
