| Short description: |
SANISOL web tool provides tailored recommendations for users of potentially contaminated vegetable gardens in Wallonia . While vegetable gardening increases food security and offers a wide range of social and ecosystem benefits, elevated soil trace metal element concentrations in urban and industrial areas may pose a health hazard, limiting the development of urban gardening. An appropriate risk assessment associated to understandable information helps to further handle the use of such sites.
