Despite its fundamental importance to life, soil comprises only 25 percent of the Earth's surface, of which only 10 percent can be used to grow crops. Soil is the foundation of life, providing essential nutrients and support for plant growth, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience. "From Dirt to Life" is a comprehensive project aimed at investigating and enhancing soil health to promote sustainable agriculture, environmental conservation, and community well-being.
