ABSTRACT:
ECONUTRI is an Innovation Action project based on a multi-actor approach which includes scientific experts in public institutions, private companies, farmers’ associations, and reaches out to various stakeholders. The aim of ECONUTRI is to optimize and validate at commercial level nutrient management technologies that minimize or even eliminate nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) pollution by limiting N emissions to soil, water and air and P emissions to water resources. Such a challenge follows the EU’s Green Deal having as a target to contribute to reduction of nutrient losses by 50% that can lead to a reduction of at least 20% in fertilizer use up to 2030 to the benefit of the farmers and the environment. ECONUTRI is partnering with six Chinese institutions to complement activities between EU and China and strengthen the scientific and technological ties.
