Welcome to SAFIR


SAFIR seeks to address problems of Europe's clean water supplies, which are under severe stress in some areas.


To protect and sustain Europe's high quality water for drinking water purposes, we may need to expand the use of treated waste-water in Europe's agriculture. However some consumers may be resistant to that approach, wanting "pure food" grown in "pure water". How can we understand and address potential consumer concerns about this type of water irrigation?
