Focal point
Location
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information. We help developing countries and countries in transition modernize and improve agriculture, forestry and fisheries practices and ensure good nutrition for all. Since our founding in 1945, we have focused special attention on developing rural areas, home to 70 percent of the world's poor and hungry people.

Displaying 1441 - 1445 of 5074土壤储存和过滤水源
功能性土壤在提供清洁水及抵御 洪水和干旱的能力上发挥了关 键作用。渗入土壤的水可存留 污染物， 防止其浸入地下水。 此外，土壤捕获和储存水，使水能够被作物 吸收，从而最大限度减少水面蒸发，最大限 度地提高水的利用率和生产率。有机质含量 高的健康土壤有能力存储大量的水，这不仅 在旱季有益，而且在强降雨季时也是如此。 旱季时，土壤水分对植物生长至关重要；强降 雨季时，通过减缓水流入溪的速度，土壤减少 了洪水和径流。
