1S6b: Introduction - A healthy soil as a basic enabling condition for the transition towards circular land management and land use

Abstract

To complete the transition in agriculture towards a circular bio-economy we see benefits from taking a holistic approach. We propose to look beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries such as soil science, agronomy, biology, social science, economy, and beyond boundaries in land use systems (agriculture, nature and urban areas). In this session we examine how healthy soils play a decisive role in designing such holistic land management and land use approaches.
