Abstract :

Abstract. Soil degradation is occurring over vast areas. The GLASOD and ASSOD projects reflect the pre-sent status of human-induced soil degradation and its impact on food productivity related to productivity changes observed in the recent past. However, there is a great need for well-documented, reliable soil information and other related data at national and regional levels to better understand and quality the impact of changing soil conditions or biomass production.
