IAEA supports countries to assess and manage water resources
Through the Technology Cooperation Program, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is providing information and skills to apply nuclear technology to countries to better assess and manage national water resources. area.

IAEA's technology cooperation projects implemented around the world have helped improve agricultural crops through the use of biotechnology; gene mutation techniques; innovation in land, water and crop management; Irrigation optimization.
IAEA plays an important role in global efforts to address challenges from pollution, climate change and water scarcity, and environmental protection.
IAEA projects also support national and transnational water development programs to meet the needs of life, livestock and irrigation, along with developing regulations, standards and guiding principles. sustainable water resource management, wastewater treatment for industrial and irrigation reuse, monitoring of pesticide residues in soil, water and agricultural products.
IAEA technologies used in the Technology Cooperation Program with other countries are advanced technologies and bring about high efficiency.
Scientists from 12 countries have evaluated common technologies and isotope technology that can determine the amount of water lost during evaporation from soil and drainage from crops in other irrigation management systems. together.
This study showed farmers more efficient ways of using water by increasing the amount of water absorbed by the crop and reducing the amount of water evaporated.
