The last #SRUKCERUBlog post of the year is written by Dr Carmen Sánchez (@carmen_agro on Twitter). She has reviewed the past, present, and future of #agriculture while highlighting the potential (and current challenges) of using #SoilBacteria as #BiologicalFertilisers. As a rusty biochemist, I really enjoyed reading her summary about the #nitrogen cycle while editing her post!
