With a view to improving soil quality and preventing desertification, this Regional Act encourages the use of compostable wastes and soil conditioners. To this end, the regional authority grants subsidies for (i) the purchase of compostable wastes and soil conditioners and (ii) the implementation of techniques aimed at the conservation of organic compounds. The Act defines the conditions under which farmers may benefit from those subsidies. Further provisions concern the monitoring of quality of soils in Abruzzo.
