Zapata, F.
A medium-term forecast of the challenges and needs of agriculture at global and regional levels shows that to achieve significant increases in agricultural productivity in the developing countries not only intensification, diversification and specialization of agricultural production systems will be needed but also sustainable use and conservation of the natural resources. In response to this situation, the Joint FAO/IAEA Programme through its Soil and Water Management & Crop Nutrition sub-program, promotes the development and adoption of integrated soil, water and nutrient management practices in well-defined agro-ecosystems and cropping systems through the use of nuclear and related techniques. In the Latin American region there is an operational IAEA Technical Co-operation Project carried out in the frame of the regional program ARCAL (Regional Co-operative Agreement for the Promotion of Nuclear Science and Technology in Latin America and the Caribbean). The main features, activities and outputs/achievements of the project ARCAL XXII "Plant Nutrition, Soil and Water Management" are described. The results obtained in the regional network of field trials illustrate the use of nuclear techniques to generate technologies of integrated and efficient use of water, fertilizers, and alternative nutrient sources and their contribution to increasing agricultural productivity. A logical continuation of the ongoing project will be the formulation of a new one on sustainable management of agricultural production systems and conservation of land resources in Latin America.
