This project focuses on analysing the potentials of voluntary agri-environmental extension services to reduce diffuse agricultural pollution in the Baltic Sea area.

At an international expert seminar Thomas Dworak gave a presentation on the role and significance of voluntary agri-environmental advisory services in minimising water pollution from the agricultural sector in the Baltic Sea Region. The seminar aimed to increase the focus upon agri-environmental extension services as a cost-effective and necessary instrument to minimise environmental – notably water – impact from the agriculture sector.
