This leaflet highlights key research outputs from Scottish Government funded strategic research including: optimisation of crops for environmental and nutritional benefits, integrated pest management, and the circular economy. Each article relates to ‘One Health’ with benefits to both the agricultural system and in public health outcomes. Crops play an important role in many systems with outputs delivering to Scotland’s Centres of Expertise for Climate Change (ClimateXChange), Waters (CREW), Plant Health (Plant Health Centre) and Animal Disease Outbreaks (EPIC).
The important topic of soil spans across Climate & Environment, Agriculture, Land & Communities, Healthier Diets and Plant & Animal Health. This leaflet highlights Scottish Government funded SEFARI strategic research to protect and make the best use of Scotland’s many and varied soils which deliver so many of the benefits to life in Scotland.
