Among the major environmental issues addressed will be:

Pollution by trace elements and nutrients in excess

Climate change and global warming

Soil stability and erosion

Water quality

Quality of agricultural crops

Plant nutrition

Soil hydrology

Biodiversity of soils

Role of micro- and mesofauna in soil
