Theme
Sandy soils cover a large part of the Netherlands and are crucial for agriculture, nature and water management. Climate change is increasing pressure on these areas: prolonged drought, water shortages and declining soil quality pose major challenges for farmers, authorities and nature managers.
The Network for Climate-resilient Sandy Soils brings together regional initiatives, scientists and policymakers. Its aim is to stimulate knowledge exchange, connect experiments and develop shared pathways for solutions. Central to this is the question: how do we make sandy soils climate-resilient in a way that does justice to the local context?
The network organises meetings, field visits and working sessions in which current insights are shared and new collaborations emerge. By strengthening the connection between research and practice, the network contributes to sustainable solutions that can be scaled to other regions.
