Bad soil management can endanger soil even more than climate change. This is one of the outcomes of the IUSS - International Union of Soil Sciences - Centennial Congress, which was held in Florence, where more that 1.500 soil scientists from all over the world discussed upon soil and health management, salinization, gender equality, global policies, risk management, regeneration, degradation and increase of the organic matter.

Riccardo Velasco, director of CREA Viticulture and Oenology, interviewed by Financial Times, says that digital sensors and NGT field experimentation,  aimed at obtaining more resistant rootstocks, can help to fight climate change.
