Biodiverse soils that are rich in organic matter have an enormous potential to tackle climate change effects. To speed up the adoption of solutions that improve soil fertility, French project Living Soils (Sols Vivants) is making sure that farmers are on board.

Project manager Gaëtan Jestin: "In collaboration with agricultural cooperatives and businesses, we motivate our farmers to collaborate in farmer working groups and give them technical support, ranging from trainings and field visits to experimental field trials."
