Summary

Meeting the Growing Food Demand of the Global Population

Innovative organic amendments with low GHG emission potential should be designed to foster terrestrial C sequestration and stabilization, capable of mitigating the environmental impact caused by the agricultural sector, while at the same time increasing soil health and adapting to climate change. For this Special Issue, we invited contributions dealing with innovations in organic and inorganic fertilization strategies in order to improve agricultural yields, while at the same time reducing negative externalities and increasing the soils’ organic matter contents.
