Four Ignition Grants will be awarded in 2025.
The sustainability of agricultural practices is increasingly critical amid environmental challenges. While effective, traditional soil-based agricultural methods often contribute to soil degradation and resource depletion. The earth’s topsoil has eroded by 50% during the last 150 years. In addition to this, soil has also been affected by agricultural practices. These effects include compaction, loss of soil structure, nutrient degradation, and soil salinity [1].
