Our food and farming systems must respect the planetary boundaries, be climate-neutral, circular, diverse, and fair.

This brief identifies strategies to enhance long-term soil fertility in organic farming by improving nutrient access, organic matter, and nutrient cycles while reducing nutrient leaching into the environment. Recent research has analyzed nutrient budgets in organic farms across Europe and developed a European roadmap. However, expanding organic farmland to 25% requires assessing the availability of local organic waste.
