Soil carbon stocks are depleted by extractive farming, leading to loss of agricultural production and use efficiency of imports. Degraded agricultural soils negatively impact around 3.2 billion people time to act is now. The objective of the Coalition of Action on Soil Health is to catalyze multi-stakeholder action from farmers to technicians, from researchers to CEOs to support the investment and policy change needed to facilitate the adoption and scaling of practices that improve soil health.

Our Coalition of Companies is committed to science-based actions to accelerate positive incentives and investments for soil health. We strongly support a Coalition of Action for Soil Health and are committed to working collectively with all stakeholders to accelerate uptake. It is quite unfortunate that soil health has not given the level of attention that it should. When soil health has proven to be so important in terms of the level of productivity, ensuring that there are better production of crops and also to ensure that we improve the livelihoods of our farmers, and Tiga and Barbuda, therefore, will support any action related to highlighting soil health and the importance they have. Soil, water and soil are three great assets to make a great agriculture in Brazil and anywhere in the world. The Brazilian Government, the Ministry of Agriculture already has a great program of soles called PronaSolos, and now in September, in the beginning of October, we will launch the Aguas do Agro, which is a conservation program of microbases that will take care of our soil and our water. We look forward to working with you to build the Coalition of Action for Soil Health to transform our food systems for people and nature.
