10th International Drainage Workshop of ICID Working Group on Drainage
The national committees of ICID in Finland and Estonia have a great honour
to invite all members of the ICID-family to the 10th International Drainage
Workshop in Helsinki and Tallinn during the second week of July 2008, the
period of Northern white nights.
Themes and topics:
Objectives of agricultural drainage have evolved over the years and vary
with circumstances. The primary objective is to make agricultural production
possible and profitable. Agricultural drainage can be seen as a part of
integrated land and water resources management where environmental aspects
play an important role. Advances in the science of drainage allow the
evaluation of the effects of system design and management on both
productivity and environmental aspects. The water quality is as important to
farming as the public opinion and sustainability of farm production.
