In central and eastern Europe, soil conservation activities are implemented with the support of initiatives focusing mainly on combating soil erosion, land fertility management and water conservation.

Leaving crop residues on the soil changes the surface characteristics. It increases rainfall efficiency, as water gets caught by and then percolates through the residues and soil.

Here, plants evolve that have resistance to high levels of metals in the soil.

Plants also excrete some waste substances into the soil around them.

In this connection, special attention is paid to irrigation and soil rehabilitation techniques. Some countries are also trying to develop horticulture and agroforestry.

The Department of Public Information and UN Water produced a promotional booklet for the Decade which includes images, facts, figures and recommendations for action on a number of water related themes.

Regarding soil and water conservation, improved irrigation techniques, introduction of water use policies and monitoring of competing uses and demands for water, soil and water conservation techniques, and flood controls were seen as important.
