DESCRIPTION OF ACTION
The project produces tools and practices for better fertilisation, which will improve the utilisation of nutrients and reduce emissions. A key tool is a fertiliser calculator that seeks to maximise the benefit of fertilisation to the farmer (the value of nutrients – the cost of fertilisation). In addition, the project produces self-study material for farmers and advisors.
