    Нормально функционирующие почвы играют ключевую роль в снабжении чистой водой и в обеспечении устойчивости к наводнениям и засухам. Благодаря своей водопроницаемости почва задерживает содержащиеся в воде загрязняющие вещества и препятствует их выщелачиванию в грунтовые воды. Кроме того, почва удерживает и сохраняет воду, обеспечивая ее доступность для сельскохозяйственных культур и, тем самым, сводит к минимуму испарение с поверхности и максимально повышает эффективность и производительность водопользования.
