Intervenção do Ministro da Agricultura, Florestas e Desenvolvimento Rural na assinatura de protocolos para financiamento do Programa Nacional de Regadios

For Portugal and for the Portuguese agriculture, water and its efficient use are crucial to face climate change and to mitigate its negative effects, such as the drought that has recently affected us for many months.
In vast Portuguese rural areas, irrigation is absolutely vital to ensure the competitiveness of many crops, the settlement of populations and the creation of jobs.
