Key highlight for 2022: The 3-days workshop on soil Erosion in EU.
|
Main objectives |
|
|
Develop an object oriented (bottom-up) approach for estimating soil erosion and erosion-related soil health indicators at farm scale. Integrate soil erosion with emerging issues such as soil contamination, carbon loss and food security. Improve large-scale assessments. Create different sub-groups based on research question or policy request. |
