Abstract

National Federation of Water Users Communities of Spain (FENACORE) presentation in spanish, english and french.

The purpose of this presentation is to introduce to the untold historical and practical value of the Spanish Irrigators Communities, to their objectives, legal basis and managing operation, as well as to their huge importance as millennial corporations, presently of Public Law, where the farmers gather with the only aim to conduct a self-management of the irrigation water in order to allocate water in more efficient, methodical and equitable way. Due either to the millennial character of the Irrigators Communities and to their proved efficiency, as well as to being pure Spanish and unique in the World, it is important to know them in order to be able to export this type of Farmer’s Associations to other countries, so that the limited water resources might be distributed with the maximum strictness and equity.
