95% of the world’s food supply is grown in soil, yet it can take up to a thousand years to rebuild just a few centimetres of it. 🌱🌎 At LFS, our research is leading us to a more food-secure future and the @ubcfarm is where we get our hands dirty. #WorldSoilDay

Agriculture relies on birds to manage pests and provide other ecosystem services. Listen to Frederik Noack, an environmental economist, as he discusses the economic value of maintaining biodiversity in agriculture.
Tim Phillips Talk Normal@timsvengali

Find out how he estimates this, and what it means for the economy and our health in: cepr.org/voxeu/voxtalks
