- Abstract
In Europe, diffuse nutrient pollution (e.g. around 90% of phosphorous and about 70% of nitrogen) from agriculture, mainly due to poorly managed subsurface drainage systems, is a primary concern for the ecological health of European river basins (Grizzetti et al., 2021). Water excess and shortage (drought) are becoming more frequent phenomena that challenge the development of agriculture and crop production in Nordic countries. The assessed irrigation water can be fed back through the existing drainage system using these as underground irrigation pipes, thus avoiding additional irrigation infrastructure and using emission-free systems (e.g. solar pumps).
