Organic production in Europe is currently dependent on the input of fertilisers derived from conventional agriculture, such as farmyard manure, slurry and fertilisers derived from slaugther residues. A significant part of the nutrient flows in our food systems goes in one direction, from land to sea, via sewage and leaching. Harvesting marine organisms for fertilisation,...

Ta fosforet tilbake
2019-11-08
Organic farming systems with restricted access to animal manure often experience decline in soil P concentrations. Nutrients should be cycled in society to maintain the long-term fertility of agricultural soil. One option for this may be precipitation of struvite (magnesium-ammonium phosphate) from sewage treatment plants, to be Applied as fertiliser. Struvite produced in a Norwegian...
