"To combat #desertification, have meaningful #climateaction & restore #biodiversity, we need healthy and thriving soil ecosystems. We all have a responsibility to do what we can to restore #soil function." @lawinowiecki 🔗 bit.ly/Soil-Land-Health #DesertificationAndDroughtDay

Witnessed the power of agroforestry in action on a Swiss agricultural landscape! Inspired by the young agroforestry who strategically planted rows of apple trees on his crop field, boosting both biodiversity and farm productivity. @agroscope @FelixHerzog6 @DigitAFproject

Soil is so much more than the dirt beneath our feet.🌱 It is the foundation of all life on earth & is critical for functioning ecosystems. Investing in our soil is creating healthy, resilient landscapes - for people and the planet. 🌍 #EarthDay2023 #SaveSoil #TreesPeoplePlanet

Our food systems are failing❗ 🥣 More that 2 billion experience food insecurity 🥗 Low production of healthy diets 🌾 15 crops provide 90% of global energy intake 🌳 Trees – in forests & farms – offer a resilient source of food & livelihoods. #WorldFoodDay #Trees4Resilience

Healthy #soil is crucial to food security and nutrition.🌱 95% of our food is directly or indirectly produced on our soils. Therefore, food availability relies on soils. Healthy and good quality food can only be produced if our soils are healthy. #WorldFoodDay @ca4sh_global
