#Pulses are the future! Do you know why? 🫘

🌍 Legumes are sustainable crops
🫀 Pulses are nutritious and healthy
💰 Affordable food options
🥗 Fun dishes

Let’s eat more pulses! 🍽️💚

Pulses: from field to plate, ideal characteristics to meet tomorrow's challenges. By EffiScientiFig. Diagram describing the advantages of pulses. At the start of the arrows: nitrogen fixation from the air, low water requirements, wide genetic diversity, low cost, high in protein, high in fiber, low in fat. At the end of the arrows, issues such as food security, resilience of agricultural systems, climate change mitigation, biodiversity, diabetes prevention and management, cardiovascular risk reduction.

Happy #WorldWetlandsDay! 💧

Today, let’s celebrate the central role of #wetlands in our lives!

They increase resilience to #ClimateChange, support #biodiversity, filter water & contribute to #foodsecurity.

Preserving & restoring wetlands is essential to limit severe flooding from heavy rainfall.
Up: 5 circles illustrating rivers, floodplains, marshes, estuaries, and mangroves. Down: 4 squares to illustrate how wetlands degradation contributes to floods: 1) a river and a marsh, with natural soils; 2) channelization of the river and drainage of the marsh; 3) land conversion to urban areas and agriculture; 4) heavy rain causes severe flooding.

💡 Did you know #soil is the largest carbon reservoir in the terrestrial ecosystem?

🚨 Accurate estimation of soil C is crucial to addressing pressing issues such as #ClimateChange, #FoodSecurity, and #biodiversity conservation.

Learn more about the different soil C measurement methods ⬇️

Soil Organic Carbon Measurement Methods. At the top, 5 methods are mentioned from left to right. * Novel sensor technologies * Hybrid (satellite + high-resolution sensors), a promising approach * Core sampling & lab analysis, the gold standard * Hybrid (satellite + lab) * Satellite imagery Each method is illustrated with corresponding icones : soil with probe and portable device for Novel sensor technologies, soil with soil core sampling going in an erlenmeyer flask, satellite. Below is an indication of accuracy with line thickness, peaking at the center below the core sampling and lab analysis method. Novel sensor technologies present a good accuracy, and satellite imagery a relatively low accuracy. Then drawbacks are quantified with line thickness as well. Greater drawbacks for core sampling & lab analysis, then for satellite imagery, and novel sensor technologies present the lowest amount of drawbacks.
