The National Federation of communities of irrigators (Fenacore), from the hand of his maximum responsible, Andrés from the field, has assumed today, on behalf of Spain, the Presidency of the European Union Water Management Association (EUWMA) for a period of one year. At the head of the EUWMA, the entity intends to contribute to a more effective management of the water at the regional and local level within the European Union. For the first time in its history, Spain assumes the highest authority of this European body made up of eight States members (Italy, Hungary, United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, France, Belgium and Netherlands), while Netherlands has permanently the position of general Secretary. In his favour, he has the experience in the international framework of Fenacore and the trajectory of its President, Andrés from the field, as the holder of the Euro-Mediterranean community of Regantes.

With this appointment, public fact officially during the Assembly of the EUWMA that will close tomorrow in Valencia, Spain must defend the concerns of the farmers in the Community administration and the Governments of the Member States to achieve consensus and beneficial solutions in the field of water to develop European legislation and contribute to the protection of the agricultural sector. Also, the entity will influence to increase cooperation between European countries, through the exchange of knowledge and experience, in such a way that is achieved to improve the situation of irrigation systems in the different States towards more advanced and efficient irrigation systems.

The challenges to those who will face Spain during the next mandate include, on the one hand, help to ensure a "sensible and proportionate" implementation of the framework water directive (WFD) to ensure efficient use of water, as well as to mitigate the effects of floods and droughts that may arise as a result of possible climate change. To this end, promote the modernization of irrigation systems to reduce the cost of water to produce more with fewer resources. In addition, it must work to advance the sustainable construction of dams and diversions intercuencas in the countries of the EU as an alternative to ensure the supply of water in periods of drought. On the other hand, Spain will face the challenge of contributing to the development of the new agricultural common policy (Cap) which shall apply from 2014. In this regard, it will fight to achieve conditions to ensure an equitable sharing of the European funds between the various producers and regions so that farmers receive for their products less of what they are worth. In this way, it encarará the objective that all additional costs related to agriculture are assimilable by farm and thus avoid the loss of competitiveness with respect to the block of the Southern Cone common market (Brazil)(, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay), which sold agricultural products at low prices.
