Root2Res is pleased to participate in Suelos Vivos: European Innovation to Transform Galicia event on December 5th in Santiago de Compostela. Held in honour of World Soil Day, the event will highlight key European research advancements in soil health, including carbon farming, biodiversity measurement indicators, and pollution source identification. With a focus on the Galician region in northern Spain, the event aligns with Root2Res’ work, as Galicia is home to our laboratories where we conduct research in controlled field conditions, advancing sustainable agricultural practices.

In honour of World Soil Day and to raise awareness about the importance of soil preservation in Galicia, the event’s lead organizer, FEUGA, has prepared a series of activities aimed at promoting knowledge transfer and showcasing innovative practices.

One of these key activities is the Soil Hub Fair, an exceptional networking opportunity designed to foster collaboration among various projects and initiatives dedicated to soil health and sustainability. It will feature a dynamic and interactive format, including posters, booths, flash talks, and practical workshops. Root2Res is excited to contribute by sharing its expertise and innovative practices in soil health with attendees, while also creating synergies between experts and projects in the field.

We can’t wait to be part of this exciting event! Stay tuned for more updates, and let’s celebrate World Soil Day together.
