MINAGRIS: Micro- and NAno-Plastics in AGRicultural Soils

The MINAGRIS project will assess the fate and 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.
