Investments in irrigation (2)
Improvements to existing equipment / infrastructure:
• Minimum "potential water saving" required (gain in water efficiency)
• Real reduction in water use required if investment affects water body without good status
Investments in net increase of irrigated area:• Environmental analysis required
• In principle, no support possible (with exceptions) if investment affects water body without good status
