Europe's environment provides EU citizens with a vital supply of essential services such as air for breathing, water for drinking, and soils for producing food. Member States' rural areas host a significant proportion of our environmental resources and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) is designed to help promote sustainable approaches to the use of this key natural resource-base. This EAFRD Project Examples brochure highlights a small selection of the different approaches that Member States are taking to use the EAFRD as a key tool to deliver an on-going supply of... environmental services.
