Water in Cape Town

This report calls on policy makers to recognise the issues at stake in water resource management in agriculture and gives them the tools to do so, offering a wealth of information on recent trends and the outlook for water resource use in agriculture.

Packed with contributions from South Africa’s leading industry experts and researchers, The Sustainable Water Resource Handbook provides readers with practical insights into sustainable water resource designs, technologies, materials and solutions relevant in the South African context. The Sustainable Water Resource Handbook is a Peer Reviewed publication and forms the basis of the learning material for our soon to be launched Online Education Courses. Volume 2 of the Handbook is peer-reviewed and authors’ submissions were reviewed for academic publication by a panel consisting of some of South Africa’s top researchers and sector experts. South Africa’s first Sustainable Water Resource Handbook was launched early in 2010 and by all accounts Volume 1 has served to provide local water sector stakeholders with an effective reference tool that contains articles written by leading authors and experts in their respective sectors. Chapters ranged from climate, rainfall, groundwater and water management to wastewater, sanitation and agricultural water to name a few.
