This scoping review aimed to map and synthesize evidence on adaptive agricultural practices that support soil functionality, resilience, and productivity, particularly in climate-vulnerable regions. Using the PRISMA-ScR framework, 1587 sources were screened, and 178 peer-reviewed articles were included for detailed analysis. The review identified key strategies such as cover cropping, organic amendments, reduced tillage, diversified cropping systems, agroforestry, and targeted nutrient management. Across diverse agroecological settings, these practices increased soil organic carbon by 8–25 %, improved water retention and microbial activity, and supported yield gains of 10–40 % under climate stress. Despite documented benefits, adoption remains limited due to economic constraints, knowledge gaps, and lack of enabling policies. Integrated approaches that blend scientific research with local knowledge and context-specific management have shown potential to strengthen soil resilience. Findings highlight the importance of healthy soils for climate-adaptive agriculture, food security, and ecosystem services. Enhancing adaptive soil management offers a pathway toward more resilient and sustainable farming systems in the face of ongoing climate change.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":74839,"journal":{"name":"Soil security","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144879027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While mechanisms by which soil compaction occurs are widely understood, little has improved regarding its management in agroecosystems in the last century. Here, to better inform scientists of farmers’ soil compaction research needs, we implemented focus groups in six growing regions across Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. In each focus group, farmers completed surveys and participated in guided discussions centered on their soil compaction perceptions, experiences, and ideas. We evaluated surveys and discussion transcripts with quantitative (summary statistics) and qualitative (thematic coding) analyses to assess participants’ observations, questions, and possible management solutions. Results from this work indicate that knowledge gaps, especially regarding identification of critical thresholds for soil compaction at field scale and management options and their efficacies, influence farmers’ adoption of soil compaction management practices. Based on the needs identified in this study, key priorities for soil compaction research and education should include (1) techniques for assessing soil compaction at field scale, including both its presence and thresholds for management, (2) addressing knowledge gaps about controlled traffic farming, tillage, and crops, and (3) continued research and development of requested technologies and practices, including drones, amendments, and cover or perennial crops.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":74839,"journal":{"name":"Soil security","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100200"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144861054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approaches evaluated include (i) the absolute difference and (ii) the relative difference between genosoils (reference state) and the respective phenosoils (current state) within the five main pedogenons of the study area (Stanleigh, Marrowbone, Tamburlaine, Sandalyn and Wandin). Additionally, we examined the application of these approaches at both the indicator stage and the final score stage, comparing the results using laboratory-based datasets and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy-derived datasets. It was observed that the relativistic data can enhance the contrast between soil that has improved or degraded in nutrient cycling, showing more variation when mapping the average condition. The laboratory results were consistent across the approaches applied at both stages. Estimating condition from the final stage was preferred. The MIR dataset only aligned with the laboratory dataset when using the relative difference at the indicator stage. It was found that the five pedogenons had varying responses to viticulture management. The nutrient cycling condition of phenosoils improved in most of the region as the dominant pedogenon, Stanleigh had improved on average as well as Marrowbone.

Soil health is essential for agricultural productivity, economic viability, and ecosystem resilience, while also advancing sustainability and inclusivity. Achieving these outcomes depends on effective soil management, but slow growth in fertilizer use and limited understanding of its efficiency by farmers pose significant challenges. The Africa Fertilizer and Soil Health Summit (Nairobi, May 2024) underscored the urgency of these challenges, endorsing the African Fertilizer and Soil Health Action Plan. This commentary outlines key considerations for successful implementation of the plan, highlighting enabling conditions and strategic approaches: (1) trusted multi-sectoral partnerships fostering collaboration among farmers, governments, private companies, non-governmental organisations, and donors, (2) demand-driven research and development with strong focus on measurable development outcomes, (3) targeted investments and finance effectively expanding the role of the private sector, (4) effective policy mandates relying on comprehensive policy mixes, and (5) inclusive capacity-building using gender-transformative approaches. These strategic contributions are essential to achieving sustainable, equitable agricultural transformation in Africa. The transformation will demand innovation, long-term commitment, and coordinated action across sectors to ensure impact beyond the timeframe of the African Fertilizer and Soil Health Action Plan.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":74839,"journal":{"name":"Soil security","volume":"20 ","pages":"Article 100196"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144535719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The activity-based workshops, continuity and engagement of lessons, and question-driven learning may have been key strategies contributing to these positive outcomes. Our strategies, experiences, and reflections offer an explicit connectivity between school and soil education.
