Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'This proposal, INEMAD will concentrate on innovative strategies to reconnect livestock and crop production farming systems. New flows of energy and materials within the agricultural sector (or linked to the agricultural sector) will be analysed and will create opportunities for re-thinking the relation between crop and livestock production. Various options to cope with recycling, greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation, and bio-based economy will need an integral assessment on energy and nutrient flows and will cause new arrangements between firms, land use and land management. INEMAD will address the question of what new methods and how new arrangements should be developed to restore the recycling within the specialisation context. To realize these ambitions, the leading principle of INEMAD is a triangular enlargement of the traditional farming systems with a “processing” system. Processing is proposed as a third system, to be linked with crop and the livestock production, in order to increase agricultural productivity while reducing external energy input and closing nutrient cycle. Nutrient recycling can be done by biogas production and the use of digestate as fertilizer. Digestate can not only replace the manure but also chemical fertiliser because of its comparable properties. INEMAD will analyse improvements options for biogas plants, valorisation options for the digestate, improve the management by the use of optimisation models and compare organisational structures.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
Researchers are creating and testing strategies for more sustainable use of nutrients in agriculture.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Modern farming practices have become extremely specialised, resulting in increased resource input and subsequent negative environmental impact. For instance, livestock waste contains sometimes-toxic levels of nutrients, and farmers continue to use synthetic fertilisers for their crops.
Researchers on the EU-funded 'Improved nutrient and energy management through anaerobic digestion' (http://www.inemad.eu (INEMAD)) project are addressing this unsustainable situation. INEMAD aims to develop strategies to better integrate nutrient and energy flows in agriculture.
The principle behind INEMAD is to incorporate processing as a third aspect of agriculture in conjunction with livestock and crop farming. Researchers are developing strategies at farm, sector and policy levels.
INEMAD has spent the last two years gathering information from stakeholders and formulating possible strategies. Reports have been written on nutrient management at the farm level, potential strategies for processing of farm wastes and current policy in each member country. From this information, the most promising strategies have been chosen for further study and development.
INEMAD will work with farmers and other stakeholders to test and evaluate the strategies before selecting the best for implementation.
