Water Net Gain

Water Net Gain

The water net gain (WNG) project is a catchment scheme where farmers are paid to store water on their land in ponds which can act as ‘water batteries’.

We are looking to engage farmers across the Mersey Basin in particular the Downholland Catchment  in Lancashire.

Additional ponds and reservoirs collect water which can be:
- Used on the farm/land.
- Released into rivers/streams to improve flows during droughts.
- Provide flood protection by storing surface water run-off in the winter months.
