The 'Watering' in Lommel-Kolonie. Chances for the future

Don't forget to switch on the English subtitles when watching this video!

The first project year on 'Water Management', in collaboration with the heritage communities of traditional grassland irrigation and water mills, led to five fascinating clips.

In this first clip we visit the Watering in Lommel-Kolonie. There, 'witteren' - as they call their irrigation technique - has been reinstated since 1979. Although it is an old agricultural technique, grassland irrigation offers many opportunities for the future. Heritage bearers Jan and Luc tell us all about it.
