Food & Agro Conference 2022: Water considerations for the food economy
Channel: BNP Paribas Bank Polska
Date: 13/12/2022

The main driver of the "From the Field to the Table" strategy is to ensure a sustainable food economy through, among others, changes in the supply chain. One of its elements is ensuring that crops have the right water conditions in a way that does not endanger the environment, and that they have access to water in sufficient quantity and quality, both for ecosystems and for food processing. The quantitative and qualitative state of water resources in Poland, key EU regulations for water management and the effects of climate change on food production in Poland were discussed at this year's Food & Agro Conference under the motto “Shock to the balance” by Prof. Tomasz Okruszko and Prof. Mikołaj Pniewski from the Warsaw University of Life Sciences. The experts presented a road map for improving water availability in Poland. In their opinion, the level of water resources in Poland is not a development barrier for the operation of the agri-food sector.  We invite you to watch the full speech.
The presentation is part of a broader study produced in connection with a report prepared as part of the Open Eyes Economy movement, commissioned by the Foundation for Economics and Public Administration with the support of BNP Paribas Bank Polska S.A.
