PCM (Province of East Flanders)
PCM (Province of East Flanders) is the erosion coordinator for 21 communities: we have 15 years experience in supporting farmers, local communities and water managers in tackling their erosion problems (with a focus on infrastructural measures and cultivation techniques in conventional arable crops). We undertake continuous monitoring of groundwater/surface water–levels + interpretation of the data into advice for water management
PCM has lots of experience in advising and stimulating farmers to take erosion control measures (small scale infrastructural measures and cultivation techniques). The knowledge of research institutes and other partners can help us to convince the farmers to take the most appropriate erosion control measures. We can also learn from other partners about Natural Flood Management and other techniques that slow down run-off and prevent flooding.
