Developing an integrated platform of alternatives to reverse soil degradation. Referencia del proyecto: 101000224. Partner/Coordinador principal: José Alfonso Gómez Calero – Instituto de Agricultura Sostenible IAS- CSIC. Soil degradation has been identified as a major threat to the productivity of agricultural land. In the Czech Republic, soils are threatened primarily by water and wind erosion, but compaction, loss of organic matter, loss of soil structure stability, pollution and over-fertilization, loss of biodiversity, and soil sealing are also major concerns. Poor soil health results in many off-site effects such as surface water siltation, groundwater pollution, loss of biodiversity in the countryside, and decreasing crop yields. The Czech agricultural landscape is characterized by large fields with a very small number of interrupting elements such as furrows, paths, or balks and the crop structure is rather uniform. The state has a history of land collectivization which first took place during the twentieth century. The ongoing intensive and unsustainable industrial farming, which is often focused more on high yields of certain economically valuable crops rather than the environment, speeds up soil degradation. These problems are fortunately recognized by the stakeholders, legal authorities, and the public. There has been significant debate on sustainable landscape management and agricultural practices, and many positive examples already exist in the Czech Republic. I would like to thank the teams that worked on Tudi project no. 101000224, EU ITN SOPLAS project no. 955334, and on project no. LTC20001 “Fire effects on soils,” which contributed to some of the results reported in this chapter.
