Technical Economic Feasibility Study for the Scientifically Substantiated Use of Plant Nutrients (NPK) and Microbiological Additives in Organically Mineral Fertilizer for the Introduction of a New Product in Organic Agriculture Project leader Ilze Vircava Duration 2020 - 2020 Research focus 4. Development and adaptation of technologies for obtaining high-value agricultural and forest products, as well as in veterinary medicine Source of funding Knowledge transfer Project partners SIA GENERIS Description of project The aim of research Conduct a feasibility study on the scientifically based use of plant nutrients (NPK) and microbiological additives for the introduction of organic-mineral fertilizer as a new product in organic agriculture. The tasks of project: Classification of plant nutrients (NPK) into groups in selected raw materials according to their decomposition rateJustification of fertilizer nutrient proportions for different soils with/without microbiological additivesRecommendations for the use of microbiological material in fertilizers used in organic agriculture, etc Results Opinion on the biodegradation of selected components in organic fertilizer; Opinion on the correctness of the nutrient proportions of organic fertilizer, recommendations on the selected NPK ratio; Recommendations on potentially usable microbiological materials in biological fertilizers.Theoretical justification for the use of bioactive materials in interaction with microbiological agents and their activity. Theoretical justification for the need for pre-treatment of raw materials to accelerate the uptake of plant nutrients. Argument and conclusion on the nuances of using the Kjeldahl method (N)total.
