According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the agrifood sector accounts for nearly 70% of total available freshwater withdrawal. At the same time, agriculture is a major source of water pollution. Through concrete, bankable projects at the interface of water and agrifood, NWP hopes to reduce food security challenges and create more sustainable management of available water resources. It will do this by drawing on the international potential of the Dutch water and agrifood sectors.
NWP invites all Dutch water sector organisations, together with their agrifood partners, to send in their proposals.
