Soil health from a forest land-use perspective

This webinar is co-organised by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, one of the ERRIN's member Lärosäten Syd - Universitied in South -Sweden and Nati00ns. This webinar will discuss how impacts of forestry on soils are intensified across geographical locations where soils become more susceptible to soil erosion in semi-arid and dry areas. It will also look into how to address the monitoring of soil indicators considering rotation periods, from short 20-23 years to long 50-70 years, and consider differences in forest management practices, like mixed vegetation versus monocultures.
