The talks were ideally suited to the theme of World Soil Day 2023 - a source of life! The visualization of the ‘black box’ of soils is a powerful step forward in our understanding of so many of the processes within soils.

With understanding comes with an ability to sustain this incredible resource, so that soil can continue to be the foundation of all food production, ecosystems and of human health. Thanks to our speakers and to @EhsanTavakkoli for organizing this great event
