Maximizing soil cover isn’t just about keeping soil in place; it is about creating a resilient ecosystem that protects and nurtures our planet. It is one principle to manage soil health. 🌱 Covered soil helps prevent erosion, retains moisture, and supports microbial life, making it richer and healthier. By keeping soil covered with crops or organic matter, we can capture more carbon, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and build climate resilience from the ground up. Let’s support nature’s way of regenerating our land! 📸: Cover cropping practiced by a farmer (name concealed), we are supporting Arusha, Tanzania. #PartnersAgainstHunger #CAFAESUP #SoilCover #ClimateAction #SoilHealth #CarbonFarmingSolutions

Did you know that growing crops like pumpkins can actually enhance soil health? Here's how: 🌱 Soil enrichment and weed control: Their broad leaves create natural ground cover, reducing weeds, conserving moisture and enhancing carbon storage due to reduced soil exposure. 🌍 Soil Structure: Pumpkin vines help improve soil structure by boosting organic matter and preventing erosion. Pumpkins don't just nourish your body; they nourish the earth too! #PartnersAgainstHunger #SoilHealth #SustainableFarming #GreenAgriculture
