Why does the biological health of soils matter? Around 30% of global soils are estimated to be moderately to highly degraded, largely due to human activities such as urbanisation, industrialisation, deforestation and intensive agricultural practices. This is a critical concern given that nearly 95% of global food production depends directly or indirectly on soil. Healthy… Read more: Why does the biological health of soils matter? - Read the latest CIGR newsletter...
