| 1 | Soil health: model programs in the USA显示文摘Population growth, increasing drought, and natural resources degradation are significant global issues.Fortunately, management practices to improve soil health can address many of these issues in ways that are both good forthe farmer and the environment. In 2012, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural ResourcesConservation Service initiated its“Unlock the Secrets in the Soil” campaign to assist farmers and ranchers with adoptingsoil health systems. Other notable efforts at the federal level include research and education projects by USDAAgricultural Research Service, National Instituite of Food and Agriculture, and Sustainable Agriculture Research andEducation program. The importance of improving soil health is also recognized far beyond federal government programs.The Soil Health Institute, a nonprofit charity, was established to safeguard and enhance the vitality and productivity of soilthrough scientific research and adoption. Crop commodity organizations are promoting soil health, such as the Soil HealthPartnership. The Nature Conservancy is helping companies and private landowners incorporate soil health into theirsustainability efforts. Such efforts are supported by the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research, as well as by someof the leading global food companies such as General Mills. These are just a few of the many efforts to improve soil healthin the USA. The significance of the expanding global population, natural resource challenges, and responsibilities tocurrent and future generations truly make enhancing soil health a global imperative. | C.wayne honeycut cristine l.s.morgan pipa elias michael doane john mesko rob myers lakisha odom bianca moebius-clune ron nichols | 2020 | Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering2020，7，3： | 0 |
