SoildiverAgro

Happy World Agriculture Day! 🌱 At SoildiverAgro, we’re transforming agriculture by promoting sustainable practices that enhance soil biodiversity and crop productivity. By working with 90 farms across Europe and implementing 15 field studies, we’re testing innovative methods like biological pest control , crop rotations 🔄, and soil-friendly techniques to reduce inputs and boost yields. Our goal: healthier soils, stronger crops 🌾, and a more resilient future for agriculture 🌍. #SoildiverAgro #WorldAgricultureDay #SustainableFarming #SoilHealth

🌱 Celebrate #AgricultureDay with #MRV4SOC and Project Marvic, focusing on the transformative role of #carbonfarming in combating #climatechange! Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dnYAVN_J

On August 30th, Natural Resources Institute Finland / Luonnonvarakeskus, one of our partners, and Elonkierto  co-hosted an inspiring one-day training course in Jokioinen, part of the Boreal Region. As a highlight of Children’s Science Week, this free event engaged around 250 children under 12, focusing on the vital role of soil animals, especially earthworms, in our ecosystems.   Led by experts from Luke, the course offered hands-on activities that allowed young participants to learn how to identify and investigate these crucial soil creatures. Set against the backdrop of Elonkierto Park, the event aimed to foster a deep appreciation for nature and sustainable practices among the next generation.   At SoildiverAgro, we are proud to support initiatives that inspire and educate young minds about environmental stewardship.

🌱 Innovations in Agriculture at Maamess 2024 🌱 Maamess 2024 in Tartu, Estonia, showcased significant advancements in sustainable agriculture. Roosi Soosaar from the Soil Innovation Cluster, a partner in the SoildiverAgro project, presented the project results. Among the highlights: new technology that reduces fungicide use by identifying airborne pathogens, promoting sustainable farming practices, and insights into soil biodiversity revealing that organically managed soils have higher microbial activity and biomass, underscoring the benefits for sustainable agriculture. These innovations pave the way for a greener future in agriculture. 🌍🌾  Check out the article in our website: https://n9.cl/ggkhi9 #SoildiverAgro #Maamess2024 #SustainableAgriculture #Innovation BIOservicES   SOB4ES   Universidade de Vigo  Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena  Københavns Universitet - University of Copenhagen  Estonian University of Life Sciences  Thünen-Institut  ILVO (Instituut voor Landbouw, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek)  Natural Resources Institute Finland / Luonnonvarakeskus  Symbiom, s.r.o.  Fertilizantes y Nutrientes Ecológicos, S.L.
