The Global Soil Partnership photo contest! What photos outranks all the rest? Take a look at these unique pieces of work.

Soils are critical to feeding the world - providing safe and nutritious food - and sustaining life on Earth.

The publication "Soils for nutrition: state of the art" - which was launched on 26 July 2022 at the opening ceremony of the Global Symposium on Soils for Nutrition - contributes to the understanding of soil fertility processes from the perspective of food production and food security, as well as the environmental and climate change impacts associated with fertiliser misuse and overuse. It also outlines the main areas of opportunity and the way forward to address the nutrient imbalance that prevails in our current agri-food systems.
