Project description
 

Recovering nutrients from biowaste and reusing as biobased fertilizers to replace the synthetic fertilizers has been regarded as an important strategy towards a more sustainable agriculture system. This study aims to evaluate the nitrogen availability of biobased fertilizers at application of laboratory, greenhouse and field scale, respectively, and investigate the interrelation between fertilizers and the plant-soil system.
