Moreover, the country's climate related vulnerability is increasing  (according to recent estimates, 30 per cent of the total country area and 52  per cent of agricultural land is vulnerable to rainwater related flooding or  water logging).  Therefore, the Government of Serbia has decided to engage in upgrading,  expanding and modernising its irrigation infrastructure to sustain Serbia's  climate resilience and support its agricultural sector, including a shift  towards higher yield-crops. Additionally, the rehabilitation of Serbia's aged  irrigation and water infrastructure is expected to contribute to water and  energy savings.
