Since water sustains life, water resources must be managed using a holistic approach, linking social and economic development with protection of natural ecosystems. Effective management links land and water resources across the whole of a catchment area or groundwater aquifer. An FAO informal workshop held In Rome from 31 January to 2 February 1993 addressed the broader issues of water management In the context of land use and the environment and within the framework of river basin management. More specifically, the workshop discussed: definition of land and water linkages; development of a conceptual framework to predict land, water and plant nutrient Interaction; establishment of a landscape and river basin approach to integrated management of natural resources; and the drafting of a programme of action including applied research and modelling, education, extension, manuals and field projects aimed at promoting integrated management of natural resources. This publication contains the report and recommendations of the workshop and edited versions of eight papers that were presented and discussed at the workshop.
