Abstract. In response to the growing societal awareness of critical role healthy soils, there is an increasing demand for accurate and high-resolution soil information inform national policies support sustainable land management decisions. Despite advancements in digital mapping initiatives like GlobalSoilMap, quantifying variability its uncertainty across space, depth, time remains a challenge. Therefore, maps key properties are often still missing on scale, which also case Netherlands. To meet this challenge fill data gap, we introduce BIS-4D, high resolution modelling platform BIS-4D delivers texture (clay, silt sand content), bulk density, pH, total nitrogen, oxalate-extractable phosphorus, cation exchange capacity their uncertainties at 25 m between 0–2 depth 3D space. Additionally, it provides organic matter space 1953–2023 same range.

Inverse modeling (IM) is a valuable tool in agriculture for estimating model parameters that aid decision-making. It particularly useful when cannot be directly measured or easily estimated due to logistical constraints agricultural settings. Unlike other estimation methods, IM combines mechanistic with observations of its outputs derive the interest, allowing integration various sources knowledge. The availability numerous data sources, such as remote sensing and crowdsourcing, high spatial temporal resolution, has expanded potential agriculture. Practitioners can now incorporate footprint observational into parameter estimation. However, common techniques currently applied often struggle account effectively variability.

Accurate soil property and class predictions through spatial modelling necessitate a thoughtful selection of explanatory variables sample size, as their choice greatly impacts model performance. Within the framework Global Soil Nutrient Budgets maps (GSNmap), FAO Partnership (GSP) launched country-driven digital mapping (DSM) approach. The GSP asked countries if they could implement DSM prediction ten properties, using national point data set widely available covariates (GSP_Cov). In this study, we examined effect including additional national-based observations on performance models mainland France pilot. learning dataset was based systematic 16-to-16 km grid. For subset also assessed repeated k-fold cross-validation adding to many other irregularly spread measurements. GSP_Cov included common that represented information about terrain, climate, organisms. second consisted GSP_Cov, extended extra at level, such previously existing maps, geological remote sensing products others. Random Forest approach in combination with Boruta method employed for properties: organic carbon (SOC), pH (water), total nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), cation exchange capacity (CEC), bulk density (BD), texture (clay, silt, sand). results revealed noteworthy enhancements more than half although, some them, improvements were negligible. most significant obtained pH, CEC texture, where previous map significantly contributed increase accuracy. Adding numerous points (around 25,000) improved particle-size fractions predictions.

Zinc (Zn) is increasingly recognized as an essential trace element in the human diet that mediates a plethora of health conditions, including immune responses to infectious diseases. Interestingly, geographical distribution dietary Zn deficiency overlaps with soil deficiency. In South Asia, malnutrition high due excessive consumption rice low content. Interventions such diversification, food fortification, supplementation, and biofortification are followed address malnutrition. Among these, most encouraging, cost-effective, sustainable for Asia. Biofortification through conventional breeding transgenic approaches has been achieved cereals; however, if deficient Zn, then these not advantageous. Therefore, this article, we review strategies enhancing concentration agronomic timing, dose, method fertilizer application, how nitrogen phosphorus application well crop establishment methods influence rice. We also propose data-driven recommendations anticipate fertilization targeted policies support regions where high.
