Uruguay at a Glance

Uruguay: based on Agriculture & food production 3.3 M people 12 M beef cattle; 8 M sheep 17 M hectares 1.6 M hectares pf croplands 1 M hectares forestry Land Use A livestock and cropland country with an economy strongly based in the agrifood sectors (70% of goods exports) UY exports feed today 28 M people and targeting 50 M

The Challenge:  Produce more food  Minimize the environmental impact  Adaptation to variability and Climate Change

1. Erosion (1990) 2. Degradation (Risk) Source: MGAP, 2005 The risks:

The solution: Soil use & management plan (SMP)  1981 Uruguay passed a law of Soil and Water Conservation (Ley Nº )  Since 2014 Cropland farmers must present to the M. of Agriculture a soil management plan (SMP) developed by a certified agronomist.  The SMP has to demonstrate that the estimated annual erosion rate using USLE/RUSLE equation, is below a “T” value established for each soil.

Soil use & management plans (SMP). Today plans Has 98% of cropland Information generation

Soil use & management plans (SMP). Key Success Science and Research The agronomist role Support of farmers RENARE’s role

Soil use and management plans (SMP). Next steps SUSTAINABLE MILK PRODUCTION PLANS (SMPP) Santa Lucia watershed  water pollution risk

Applied ITCs Data Maps

Conclusions  Difficulties  Restrictive  Enforcement  Geo-sensing expensive  2 year implementation in the crop sector  Next sector is dairy and horticultural  Improve program for other countries
