Soil and biodiversity, Demands on politicsAbstract
During the conference ‘Rediscovering the soil with Alexander von Humboldt. Soil and Biodiversity - Everything is connected with everything’ in Berlin on December 5, 2019, a political statement was prepared as a major result of the discussion. Many important German organisations for nature conservation and soil protection (Tab. 1) signed this political statement in the spring of 2020. A translated version of ‘Boden und Biodiversität – Forderungen an die Politik’ is presented here, as it addresses the German and the EU common agricultural and conservational policy.
