Soil delivers numerous ecosystem services. However, soil degradation is a big issue in the EU. Good news is that soil degradation is not always irreversible: with an appropriate sustainable management of the soil it is possible to prevent the degradation process and remediate degraded land. By increasing soil fertility and soil health, sustainable soil management (SSM) offers multiple benefits. This policy brief gives good examples and recommendations for sustainable soil management.
