The fertile soils in which our food thrives are threatened. Not only is arable land being sealed for road construction and settlements, but the nutrient-rich humus layer in the fields is also dwindling. Politicians in Berlin and Brussels now want to address soil health, but are the measures sufficient?
Land is becoming an increasingly scarce commodity. Land use demands for housing and transportation but also solar energy production are making arable land scarce. Land speculation is on the rise all over Europe and the purchase and lease prices for arable land are skyrocketing. With dire consequences: small, family-run farms can barely survive on their agricultural yields. Democracy is also weakened when rural areas change so much and more and more farmers are on the brink of going out of business.
Chemical inputs - such as fertilisers and pesticides - disrupt soil health in the long term, and the carbon footprint of synthetic nitrogen fertilisers is devastating. Despite this, more and more artificial fertilisers are being used in many regions of the world to increase crop yields in the short term, but what is the true price we are paying for this?
This Böll·Europe Podcast episode explores the often overlooked link between international climate politics and gender perspectives.
