Why conducting a soil-related impact assessment?

In agriculture, sustainable management innovations are needed to meet the challenges of climate change mitigation, biodiversity preservation and food security. With a soil-related impact assessment, different management options can be analyzed by researchers to find the most sustainable choice. In this way, science can provide important information to farmers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to guide management decisions.

The Impact Assessment Platform

This platform provides detailed information on how to conduct a soil-related impact assessment in the Information Hub. In the Research Tool, you can select factsheets about indicators for your own impact assessment.

We compiled factsheets about indicators used in literature, the spatial scale they are suitable at, and the type of data they require.
