Agronomic Valorization of Bio-based Fertilizers in Greenhouses

Description

Formulation and testing of the agronomic suitability of bio-based and tailor-made fertilizers obtained from recovered nutrient sources in pot tests. During the initial stages of the new fertilizer formulation, in mesocosms, incubation tests will be conducted to assess the nutrient release capacity in soil. In the target crop and greenhouse, the effect of the new fertilizer on soil quality and nutrient uptake by the plant will be evaluated.
