Needs-based Fertilising of Plants

Targeted nitrogen fertilisation optimises yields while protecting the environment. A new Agroscope factsheet introduces site-specific fertilisation and gives an overview of the advantages, drawbacks and requirements of the main systems.

Factsheet Series for Optimising Nutrient Efficiency

In a series of factsheets aimed at practitioners, Agroscope presents current scientific knowledge on the optimisation of nutrient cycles. The factsheets give a concise explanation of the advantages, drawbacks, trade-offs and economic aspects of individual measures. In this way, Agroscope supports farmers’ efforts to enhance nutrient efficiency and minimise losses. For further information: https://www.agroscope.ch/naehrstoffverluste (Düngung/Mineraldünger)
