Catchment planning boosts impact of small water retention measures
Flooding, drought, and the loss of soil and nutrients are well-known challenges in agricultural catchments. Climate change is making these problems more pronounced. More intense rainfall leads to more runoff and erosion in fields, while longer dry periods increase the need to retain water in soils a...

Flooding, drought, and the loss of soil and nutrients are well-known challenges in agricultural catchments. Climate change is making these problems more pronounced. More intense rainfall leads to more runoff and erosion in fields, while longer dry periods increase the need to retain water in soils and across the wider landscape.
