An international group of leading fertiliser and s An international group of leading fertiliser and soils experts have published a major review of the status of the toxic heavy metal cadmium in agricultural systems around the world. They say that as well as good agricultural management practices to minimise uptake into the world’s food chains, further action and research is needed to achieve ‘zero-net accumulation’ of cadmium in soils over the long term, in order to not compromise food quality.
