According to scientific analysis, rainwater is not pure H₂O and can contain a variety of dissolved minerals, including calcium. While the concentration is typically very low, atmospheric dust particles and industrial emissions can introduce calcium into the water before it even reaches the ground.

Globally, overgrazing is a significant cause of desertification, impacting millions of hectares of rangeland every year. This unsustainable practice triggers a destructive cascade of ecological and environmental problems that degrade soil and disrupt ecosystems.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), poor agricultural practices are one of the key drivers of soil degradation, with nutrient losses being a significant factor leading to diminished soil fertility and lower crop yields. But what are nutrient losses, and what causes this depletion in both our food and the environment?
