The MINAGRIS project will assess the impact of plastic debris in agricultural soils on biodiversity,
plant productivity and ecosystem services and their transport and degradation in the environment.
We will provide tools and recommendations for sustainable use of plastic in agriculture at the farm
and field levels for ensuring safe and economically viable food systems in Europe.

MINAGRIS aims to contribute to healthy soils in Europe by providing a deeper understanding and tools to assess the impact of microplastics and nanoplastics in agricultural soil health.
We were very pleased to share an overview of the MINAGRIS project at the recent World Congress of Soil Science, with an audience of around 300. The presentation was given by Dr Charlotte Chivers, who is part of our dissemination and exploitation team. Download the slides here.
MINAGRIS Project is funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme for research & innovation under Grant Agreement number: 101000407
