The 4 per 1000 Virtual Fair - Soils for food security and the climate

An event organised by the 4 per 1000 Initiative, to which CIRAD contributes, in the context of the EU Green Week. Find CIRAD on the platform for the virtual fair with three stands and conferences associated with three emblematic projects on the preservation and restoration of soil.

The capacity for carbon storage in agricultural and forest soils can play a crucial role in food security, the agroecological transition and adaptation to climate change, and thus contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals while implementing the Paris Climate Agreement.

In the context of the 4 per 1000 Virtual Fair, from 3 May to 11 June 2021, CIRAD and its partners are presenting three emblematic projects that focus on improving soil preservation and restoration practices, with three stands and, for each one, a corresponding conference.
