Popis: The simultaneous mitigation of toxic arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) in rice grain remains a global challenge. Passivation with natural or artificially modified materials has shown great potential to simultaneously reduce the bioavailability of As and Cd in paddy soils. To date, however, limited materials have are available, with unclear underling mechanisms. Here, a natural iron-based desulfurization material is hypothesized to simultaneously mitigate As and Cd availability in paddy soil-rice continuum, since it is rich in calcium (Ca), iron (Fe), Silicon (Si), manganese (Mn), and sulfur (S). The addition of the proposed material promoted rice growth and reduced soil availability of Cd (extracted with 0.01 mg·L
