Sustainable production of healthy food in rural and urban environments — creating value from biological wastes, rehabilitating degraded land, and keeping contaminants out of our food and waterways.
在城乡环境中可持续地生产健康食物——从生物废弃物中创造价值，修复退化土地，并阻止污染物进入食物与水体。
Soils underpin the global economy. Our science focusses on the sustainable production of healthy food in both rural and urban environments. Our transdisciplinary research on soil and the 'circular bio-economy' includes the creation of value from biological wastes, the rehabilitation of degraded environments, reducing the entry of contaminants such as cadmium into food products, and ensuring that the nutrients contained in biological wastes provide economic and ecological benefits instead of exacerbating the degradation of waterways. Circular economies in agricultural systems are generated by improving efficiencies of nutrient and pesticide application as well as capturing contaminants that exit the system using, for example, soil conditioners or NZ native ecosystems that are established in agricultural landscapes.
土壤是全球经济的根基。我们的研究聚焦于城乡环境中健康食物的可持续生产。围绕土壤与「循环生物经济」的跨学科研究包括：从生物废弃物中创造价值，修复退化的环境，减少镉等污染物进入食品，并确保生物废弃物所含的养分带来经济与生态效益，而不是加剧水体退化。农业系统中的循环经济来自两个方面：一是提高养分与农药的施用效率，二是拦截离开系统的污染物——例如借助土壤改良剂，或在农业景观中营建的新西兰原生生态系统。
The Soil Protection Group develops new environmental tools and technologies through transdisciplinary collaboration of partners from New Zealand Universities, Crown Research Institutes, and environmental consultancies. KiwiScience has active collaboration with international partners. We work on both local and global environmental issues.
