ABSTRACT Background The availability of fertile land suitable for agriculture is limited. In the European Union, political demand for self‐sufficiency in staple food production currently competes with increasing ambitions for nature restoration and green energy. Meanwhile, the overall agricultural area shrinks due to land sealing.

Abstract Soil organic carbon (SOC) is central to the global carbon cycle, yet unsustainable cultivation has resulted in a continuing SOC loss and has made it highly vulnerable to future climate change. In China, the Well‐Facilitated Farmland Construction (WFC) initiative has sought to enhance soil conditions by integrating farmland management units ...

This study tested whether combining high tree species richness with mixed mycorrhizal types (arbuscular mycorrhizal [AM] and ectomycorrhizal [EM] fungi) enhances productivity in forest ecosystems. Results did not support this: neither litter production nor nutrient traits benefited from mycorrhizal mixing.

A Novel Assay for On‐Site Detection of Soil Microbial Activity
ABSTRACT Soil degradation and the loss of organic carbon threaten agricultural productivity and climate resilience worldwide. Yet, practical on‐farm tools for assessing soil microbial activity, an essential indicator of soil health, remain scarce. Most available methods require laboratory infrastructure or scientific field equipment, thus limiting ...

Soil combinations as an object of digital soil mapping: forest-steppe of the Oka-Don lowland
A 0.5 million-hectare study area of the Bityug-Saval-Tsna interfluve of the Oka-Don lowland demonstrates the potential of digital mapping of soil combinations in the forest-steppe zone. The gently rugged topography of the interfluve and deposits with low
