The European Commission proposes to implement a mission in the area of 'Soil health and food' as part of the next research programme Horizon Europe. Missions are a new instrument for research and innovation to increase the impact of research, connect with citizens and show that science matters in day-to-day lives.
A mission in the area of soil health and food will raise awareness on the importance of soils for food production and other important services/functions. It will deliver knowledge and solutions to manage soils in more sustainable ways so that they are preserved for future generations.
Through this online survey the Commission would like to hear what you know about soils and their functions and how you perceive the mission area 'soil health and food'. Your answers will help develop the scope of the mission and communicate to you on its design and implementation.
