When it comes to phosphorus in our soil, balance i When it comes to phosphorus in our soil, balance is crucial. 🤐

Too much of it can pollute the water, while deficiencies make for less fertile soil.

Farmers and scientists all around the world are asking the same question: how can we regulate phosphorus levels without relying entirely on man-made fertilisers?
Dr Bettina Eichler-Löbermann and other researchers at the @unirostock are investigating not one, but three solutions that could create a better, more secure future for agriculture around the world.
