contents <p>This synthesis identifies the knowledge about the sustainable soil management practices and their<br>biophysical and socio-economic impacts, as reported by the research teams of the different EJP SOIL <br>participating countries. Most reported practices were in the group of “Crop and cropping systems”, <br>followed by the group “Soil tillage and cover”. The three most reported impacts related to sustainable <br>soil management practices were “Soil quality”, “Nutrients in the soil”, and “Soil Structure”, while the <br>impacts “Desertification”, “Readiness for use”, and “Other socio-economic” were the less reported.<br>The impacts of sustainable soil practices were also related to the EJP SOIL soil challenges. The three <br>most reported challenges were “Enhance nutrient use efficiency”, “Maintain/increase SOC”, and <br>“Improve soil structure”, while “Avoid acidification”, “Avoid salinisation/alkalinisation”, “Avoid N2O <br>and CH4 emissions from soils” were rarely reported. These results were related to varying levels of <br>knowledge or awareness about the sustainable soil practices and their impacts. The synthesis identifies <br>the need for further knowledge on some impacts and challenges, such as, for instance, evidence of <br>practices contributing to increase carbon in deeper soil layers, and of practices to decrease greenhouse<br>gas emissions from agricultural soils.</p>
