Irrigation Standards – Sustainable Solutions for Agriculture in the Republic of Moldova Facing Climate Change

In the context of increasingly severe climate change, the Republic of Moldova is facing major challenges in securing water resources for agriculture. Rising temperatures, prolonged drought periods, and unstable rainfall patterns are seriously affecting the productivity of agricultural land and food security. In this context, irrigation becomes an essential component of sustainable agriculture, capable of responding to the new climate realities.

To develop efficient, sustainable, and locally adapted irrigation systems, the implementation of international and national standards is crucial. Standards provide a solid technical foundation for the design, installation, and operation of irrigation systems, helping to ensure the rational use of water resources, reduce losses, and optimize energy consumption.
