Spain 2015 International Year of the Soil - Stamp with Seeds





Issue date 26 June 2015

To commemorate the UN declared "International Year of the Soils 2015" Spanish Philately has issued a special stamp featuring Petunia seeds which one can plant in the soil along with the slogan "Renew the soil - Plant me".  The image on the stamp shows the contrast of fertile soil with the food produced from it and a forest full of plants, alongside cracked, barren soil resulting from the deterioration of the ecosystem.

Healthy soils play an important role in preventing droughts.
