Excess water control (in both irrigated and rainfed regions), soil salinization and sodic soil control (in both cases of poor irrigation management and in case of fashioned deficit irrigation), soil acidification control (in tropical or Nordic humid regions), flood control, drought control, re-use and multiple use of water, surface and underground water quality, ecosystems preservation, creation or control of biodiversity are the keywords related to drainage water management. All these roles and services are often dramatically neglected. Therefore a crucial question that need to be answered is what may be the new technologies in drainage management to meet the environmental challenges. |
