Foundation launches guide on soil protection and regeneration

Food & Agriculture10 September 2026

The Mendes Gonçalves Foundation has released a new best-practice guide, "Proteção e Regeneração do Solo", through its Regenerar programme. The document responds to challenges such as soil degradation, biodiversity loss, water scarcity and climate adaptation, arguing that regenerative agriculture has no single universal formula. It combines academic research with practical recommendations to help agricultural professionals diagnose soil conditions and make informed decisions before intervening. The guide is aimed at farming professionals, researchers and interested citizens, and is available for consultation online.
