Рим – Представители более 500 партнеров, включая членов Продовольственной и сельскохозяйственной организации Объединенных Наций (ФАО), соберутся на этой неделе на 10-й Пленарной ассамблее Глобального почвенного партнерства (ГПП), которое с момента своего создания десять лет назад работает над повышением уровня осведомленности о важности устойчивого управления почвами на глобальном и местном уровнях и разрабатывает стратегии, ориентированные на решение проблем, начиная с эрозии, засоления и загрязнения до сохранения биоразнообразия, связывания углерода и дисбаланса питательных веществ.

The Global Soil Laboratory Network (GLOSOLAN) was established in 2017 to build and strengthen the capacity of laboratories in soil analysis and to respond to the need for harmonizing soil analytical data. Harmonization of methods, units, data and information is critical to (1) provide reliable and comparable information between countries and projects; (2) allow the generation of new harmonized soil data sets; and (3) support evidence-based decision making for sustainable soil management. In order to downscale its activities and better adapt them to the local context, the Global Soil Laboratory Network (GLOSOLAN)is structured in regional and national soil laboratory networks. National Soil Laboratory Networks are established by grouping together soil laboratories operating in the same country, under the leadership of the National Reference Laboratory. 

The Global Symposium on Salt-Affected Soils (GSAS21) – “Halt soil salinization, boost soil productivity” addressed one of the most acute soil threats worldwide, soil salinization and sodification, which challenges the sustainable development of countries with arid and semiarid climates and extensive coastal areas.
