OPPORTUNITIES IN SOIL HEALTH & SEQUESTRATION

01 May 2024
Food & Agriculture Forum
Supply Chain , Innovation

Healthy soil is the foundation of our food chains, supports biodiversity and plays a crucial role in sequestering carbon dioxide from our atmosphere. However, it is estimated that up to 40% of the world’s soil is degraded, thereby restricting its ability to absorb and store excess carbon.

Maintaining our soil health is key to achieving our global climate targets and providing the planet with enough food in the future. During this session, we will discuss what farmers and individuals can do to improve soil health by adopting regenerative agricultural farming practices, as well as the technological solutions that can help us achieve this.
