Steering soil microbiomes for better crop quality: the holy grail to improve human health?
A step towards sustainable farming practices that prioritize not only yields but also the nutritional value and health benefits of our food.
​
At IBL, we are part of this large consortium funded by NWO that include multiple partners, and we focus on the impact of soil microbes on plant nutritional quality.
Envisioned impacts
-
Healthier food supply
-
Concrete recommendations on how to modify agricultural practices to generate healthier soils and crops; importantly, these changes will also indirectly enhance water quality, climate migration, and biodiversity
-
Change in the framing of the agricultural value chain
-
Integration of different components in the food system
