Deliverables

Documents, reports (6)

Recommendations for products for farmers

Recommendations for products for farmers (M60) for each product, a guide user will be supplied to optimise the application and the effect on crops.

Final report on standardisation

Final report on standardisation: details for each standardisation area, whether existing standards were followed or if and how the project contributed to the development of new standards

Report on current framework conditions: regulations and policy opportunities and barriers

Report on current framework conditions: regulations and policy opportunities and barriers (M15) focusing on current situation, if already available based on upcoming fertiliser regulation. Essential input for component and product fine-tuning

Recommendations for struvite producers to make their product suitable for use as P source in fertilisers
Final report on framework conditions for novel products

Final report on framework conditions for novel products focusing on novel products that are tested in field trials, and including most recent fertiliser regulation

Field data analysis of the trials performed in all years

Thorough statistical analysis and evaluation for all field trials, critical evaluation of results. Public summary of results.
