<p>Defra’s 25 Year Environment Plan (25 YEP) sets out our ambition to sustainably
manage our soils by 2030. The 25 YEP indicator framework will measure and evaluate
‘Healthy Soils’. We are currently funding research to develop these indicators and
accompanying monitoring plans. These will further inform policy for tackling soil
degradation. We are already taking action to enhance and protect soil. Defra’s Farming
Rules for Water protects soil through measures on erosion control and fertiliser application.</p><p><strong>
