Prepsoil project presents two reports on taxonomy and economic sustainability of Living Labs and Lighthouse Farms, key players in developing new ideas and solutions for soil health
Thanks to a sensing system, some farm machinery offers the opportunity to use less herbicide by detecting weeds and distributing treatments in a targeted manner
Soil, a Dutch study recalls, harbors a huge number of microbes capable of producing effective and as yet unknown antibiotics. Genetic investigation makes it possible to identify them
Corrinoids, a category of nutrients to which vitamin B12 belongs, influence the functionality of soil microbiomes, two UC Berkeley studies have found
The study: cracking down on “slash and burn” techniques in forests decreases the concentration of particulate matter in the air and the number of hospitalizations and deaths
A Spanish study reveals a little-known dynamic in the soil-microbe system. Soil, the authors explain, affects microorganism communities more than plant life cycles do
A British study found that opposing extreme weather events alter soil microbe communities according to distinct and predictable dynamics
In coastal areas, macropores favored by root growth increase tidal-driven water exchange by improving soil respiration
An Indian study reveals the properties of zinc in mitigating the effects of water stress on plants. Foliar sprays offer an effective solution
It’s beneath our feet but we never think about its value. We tread on it, we mistreat it, but a healthy, fertile soil means life. It’s time to take care of the soil and each one of us can and must make a difference.
