Abstract

Chile has made significant progress in developing risk-based guidelines for managed aquifer recharge (MAR) using natural waters to support agriculture. This study summarises the current MAR projects in Chile, progress achieved to date and points to some of the challenges and opportunities for MAR implementation in the future. MAR makes common sense, supported by a sound scientific and technical base for risk-based guidelines. However, despite these guidelines for agriculture, there is a need to fully develop the potential of MAR nationally through education and the implementation of well documented demonstration MAR projects which needs innovative policy drivers and institutional arrangements.
