The Centre’s academic and research objectives align with two of Dalhousie’s core signature research clusters: Food Security and Clean Tech, Energy, the Environment, with broad applications through and towards the cross-cutting theme of Big Data Science.
Food security, clean water, and climate change are the three thematic areas that help guide our mission and drive the application of soil science principles to solutions of current problems.
Food Security
Sustainable soil management is critical to maintaining its productivity and ending hunger, achieving food security, and improving nutrition.
