Definition

  • Green Water Credits is an environmental reward system that promotes sustainable land and water management by farmers, so that land and water degradation diminish and both water quantity and quality increase. Green Water Credits will guarantee investments for land users to apply simple, but effective soil and water management practices, which leads to an increase in the amount of green water upstream and blue water downstream. http://greenwatercredits.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=frontpage&Itemid=1 (en)
