Land and Soil Management Award 2015/16

The prize rewards land use and soil management practices mitigating soil threats i.e. soil degradation, erosion, reduction of organic matter content, diffuse contamination, and compaction as well as the reduction of soil biodiversity, salinization, sealing, flooding and landslides. In doing so, the award sheds light on outstanding achievements, encouraging new concepts of land and soil protection and their implementation in land management, as well as enhancing awareness about the importance of land and soil functions.
5.000 Euro as well as a diploma of recognition are awarded to the winning project every year. Application deadline: 311215 Information & application: http://www.europeanlandowners.org/awards/soil-land-award
