Abstract | Hou et al. have revealed widespread metal contamination in agricultural soils, threatening food security, food quality, and human health. We propose climate-informed risk mapping of the mobile metal pool aligned with crop production mapping, followed by risk management strategies through engineered crops, metal-remediating plants, and targeted organic and microbial amendments. |
