The LIFE Agriclose project has provided the sector with a range of new possibilities for managing products from the treatment of livestock manure.
The solutions proposed as part of the project are adapted to local circumstances and promote the idea of local fertilisation, offering a better use of nutrients within the framework of the new circular economy.
Work has been carried out directly with the sector to develop joint solutions: active involvement of more than 25 organisations, participation of more than 70 farms, direct action on more than 40 hectares of demonstration sites and use of more than 900 tonnes per year of organic products.
All the solutions are aimed at protecting the quality of the environment and also the food produced.
This combination of activities offers solutions for manure management adapted to local circumstances, promotes the concept of local fertilisation, exploits the products of the treatment processes, not only as a solution to the growth of the livestock sector, but also as a good fertiliser for agriculture and reconnects livestock farming with around agricultural activity.
