Sustainable Land Use
Sustainable Land Use ensures a fair and balanced distribution of land, water, biodiversity and other environmental resources between the various competing claims, in order to secure human needs now and in the future.

Wageningen Environmental Research integrates knowledge on soil, water, biodiversity and environmental management in order to address conflicting claims to natural resources, while maintaining social and economic security and preserving the environment. We develop this knowledge for partners in education, policy, private businesses and investment companies.
