Abstract:
The project’s aim is to test a new type of bioadditive, hydrolysate from animal waste, in order to protect the physical, chemical, and biological properties of agricultural soils and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. The main aim is to test the efficiency and longevity of the hydrolysate phase and dose in improving soil quality and health. The secondary aim is to verify the efficiency of hydrolysate in the stabilization of plant biomass from harvesting remnants in the soil and in decreasing greenhouse gas emissions from the soil. All this will be tested considering the type of soil and crop ensuring their sustainability, maximum water retention, amount of nutrients, and microbial communities.
