Analyzing Directive (EU) 2025/2360 on Soil Resilience 🔍
A key challenge is balancing land use ⚖️:
"It is important to strike a balance between [infrastructure/raw materials] and vital ecosystem services." 🌱
At #SoilOlive, we ensure human activity respects the biological health of our olive groves 🌳
Tomorrow, @ujaen will become the epicentre of scientific knowledge on EVOO with the 4th Conference on Olive Groves and Olive Oil: ‘The role of EVOO in culinary medicine’.
📅 Friday, 13 March | 5:00 p.m.
