The study demonstrates that sustainable farming practices alone cannot solve this contamination crisis - only comprehensive action combining soil management with stricter industrial emission controls can protect food safety. Under current contamination levels, only 20% of fertilizer can be safely reused, while China currently uses 30%, highlighting the urgent need for integrated solutions across the entire food production system.
