Healthy soil is the foundation for
a nutritious world. To celebrate
this essential component of our
food system, IFDC hosted the
#ShowUsYourDirt photo contest
in recognition of the International
Year of Soils. Participants were
asked to share photos depicting
the soil in their area or photos
that demonstrate proper soil
management practices.
The winner of the contest is the
Kenya Feed the Future Innovation
Lab and Quest Agriculture Ltd.

soil testing and customized fertilizer
recommendations for improved

sustainability.
