In fact, soil health & fertility have a direct influence on the nutrient content of food crops π±

About 95% of our food comes from soils.
But 33% of our soils are degraded, & nutrient imbalance is one of the leading causes.
Improving soil nutrient balance is an effective way to help ensure safe, nutritious food for all.

For example, healthy soil can retain 25% of its volume in water.
This means that water availability is impacted by the health of our soils.
