FERTICOOP: Innovations to adapt to the best available techniques (BAT) in the Catalan cooperative agricultural sector

FERTICOOP aimed to develop innovation tools for a better management of manure and agricultural fertilisations, achieving a valorisation of slurry and improvement in the quality of the extensive crops that are produced. This flyer focuses on the evaluation of BAT in different farms to identify the chemical fertility of soils and to reduce the amount of phosphorus in soils. Outcomes include: • Evaluation of different BATs depending on the characteristics of the different fields and training farmers on them. • Reducing the use of mineral fertilisers. • Evaluation of recommendations to reduce phosphorus in different soils.
