soil conservation

World Soil Day highlights soil's importance in life, food security, and climate action. This year's theme, "Caring for Soils: Measure, Monitor, Manage," urges global efforts in sustainable soil management and conservation practices.

A study led by the Institute of Natural Resources and Agrobiology (IRNAS-CSIC), of the Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC), publishes the first global estimate of hot spots for soil nature conservation.
