János Mészáros is taking part for the second time in expeditions organized under the Hungarian Dry Andean Research Program in the vicinity of the Ojos del Salado volcano in Chile.
We spoke after watching a film that sparked a lively professional debate and aroused great interest from the lay audience as well, the aim of which was to evaluate the statements made from a professional point of view, to formulate how we see the problem area.
The study of the entire nitrogen cycle is increasingly prioritised and the goal is to achieve better nitrogen efficiency. In recent years, our studies have focused on certain factors affecting efficiency, which we provide a brief insight into.
In 2019, the Hungarian Hiking Association also organized the Hiking Festival in Verőce, in Csattogó-völgy. The Hungarian Soil Science Society and the ATK Institute of Soil Sciences participated in the program with an interactive presentation.
The aim of the presentation is to draw attention to the fact that multi-criteria analysis is essential for an in-depth understanding of the role of soil microbe communities in the rhizosphere (functions, performance indicators) and the sustainability of the particular tillage method.
Gábor Szatmári of the Department of Soil Mapping and Environmental Informatics won the three-year support of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Premium postdoctoral program in 2019.
The presentation briefly summarises the importance of soil structure research, traditional and innovative methods of structural testing, and presents the most important results of the current research in the department on the subject.
