Directive) along with the CSS
(Cross Compliance Scheme) of
the EU CAP (Common
Agricultural Policy) introduces
the principle "the user pays" in

increasing effect of agricultural costs,
affecting the choice of cultivation,
irrigation method and system. In this
light, ENORASIS offers an irrigation

Decision
Support
System (ENORASIS Service Platform
and Components) for environmentally
optimized and thus sustainable
irrigation management for farmers and
water management organizations.
