A new report covered by The Independent warns that vegetables are becoming less nutritious because of declining soil quality. Researchers point to intensive farming practices that deplete soils of key minerals, raising concerns that crops contain lower levels of vitamins and nutrients than in the past. The findings are drawing attention among food, nutrition and health commentators, with calls for better soil management and more sustainable agriculture.

Why now: Concerns about how degraded soil is reducing the nutritional value of food are currently being shared and discussed.
