The World Soil Day campaign aims to connect people with soils and raise awareness on their critical importance in our lives. Did you know? Soil is the basis for food, feed, fuel and fibre production and for services to ecosystems and human well-being. It is the reservoir for at least a quarter of global biodiversity, and therefore requires the same attention as above-ground biodiversity. Soils play a key role in the supply of clean water and resilience to floods and droughts.

The conclusion of this Oxfam’s report is interestingly just contrary to the thinking of the top rulers in Pakistan, who boast to have brought a revolutionary change in the economic condition of the country.  Food prices, according to the global report of the British international NGO, have hovered near an all-time peak since late 2010 sending tens of millions of people into poverty.
