New Delhi, June 06 (ANI): Spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, who is actively involved in Save Soil Movement, on June 06 highlighted the need to protect soil and said that not a single nation in the entire world has an average of 3 per cent organic content in its agricultural soils. In an exclusive interview with ANI, Sadhguru said, “To call soil a soil, the UN agencies fix minimum 3 per cent. 3 per cent means you are providing microbial life to top soil, famine diet, very stringent diet. That's what 3 per cent means. But that much is needed to call soil a soil. Otherwise, it is in the process of becoming a sand. Not a single nation in the entire world has an average of 3 per cent organic content in its agricultural soils.” The Save Soil Movement was started by Sadhguru in March 2022, and he embarked on a 100-day motorcycle journey which passed through 27 countries. June 5 marked the 75th day of the 100-day journey.
