[Katrin Prager @katrin_prager]

This is based on a comprehensive review of existing data and information in the UK and Australia, and emerged from an interdisciplinary collaboration (a soil scientist and a social scientist). Very much enjoyed the questions and discussions in the process!

[Katrin Prager @katrin_prager]

We distill 3 steps to turn soil data into actionable knowledge for sustainable land management, and the required soil and knowledge governance arrangements.
