Outlook on the knowledge gaps to reduce soil erosion

If you are interested in what the required research needs are to tackle soil erosion, then the Outlook on the knowledge gaps to reduce soil erosion is for you.

The SOLO Prevent Erosion Think Tank’s new report looks at ways to create, share, and use new knowledge. It stresses the need for joint research that evaluates the social and economic sides of erosion, alongside identifying and creating better tools for measuring and comparing data across different scales.
