Together for soil health: Join the NOVASOIL community and make a difference!


Why is it important for you to participate in soil health projects like NOVASOIL?

Soil health is a critical resource for all of us and our future. That is why it is essential that all actors in protecting and improving our soil are actively involved in soil health projects. Here are some of the reasons why you should get involved:

  • Improving quality of life. Soil health is closely related to people’s quality of life. Healthy soil enables the production of nutritious food and a healthy environment.
  • Securing our food future. Food production depends to a large extent on the health of the soil. If we do not protect and improve our soil, we risk not being able to produce enough food to feed people in the future.
  • Climate change mitigation. Soil health also plays an important role in climate change mitigation. Healthy soil is better able to sequester carbon and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Citizen participation. Active community participation is essential to ensure the success of any soil health project. Together, we can bring different perspectives and innovative solutions to help address the challenges we face.

Soil is the most important resource we have. If we do not protect our soil, we will lose the ability to produce food and clean water
