| dc.description | Micronutrients from soil are crucial for plant growth and development. They also affect the nutritional content of produce. Owing to nutrient imbalances caused by unsustainable management, soils in some parts of the world are providing fewer nutrients to plants, and therefore, to animals and people. In an effort to combat the deterioration of soils and the resulting decrease in nutrients in food, this project supports sustainable soil management (SSM) in Bangladesh, Burkina Faso and Malawi, three countries whose populations suffer from malnutrition. These SSM practices are a key element of nutrition-sensitive agriculture, which is a food-based approach to agricultural development that puts nutritionally dense foods, dietary diversity and food fortification at the center of overcoming malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies. | |
