Wat was de uitdaging/het probleem dat werd aangepakt??
Fertilizers used in agriculture in our time are becoming more and more expensive. Bio-based fertilisers are also becoming more expensive and more difficult to access on the market. For this reason, alternatives are being sought locally. One of the alternatives is sapropel, which is relatively easily available in our country.
Hoe heb je het probleem opgelost??
The project aim is to study and develop of energy effective and economically justified sapropel production (dehydration) technologies in Latvia’s conditions, and to assess application suitability of sapropel, as a biologically active additive and soil fertilization product, in agriculture. To achieve the project aims, the following activities are planned: Development of sapropel dehydration method; The studying of sapropel as a biological fertilizer and soil substrate product; The studying of sapropel as a biologically active feed additive in animal production. The project theme is focusing on the study of the use of a completely new technology in sapropel production (dehydration) in Latvia’s conditions, and the use of the new sapropel product in such an important sector of the national economy as agriculture, in the sector of primary production that will further be offered for the use in industrial production
Wat is innovatief in jouw praktijkgeval?
Development of sapropel dehydration method is the innovation in this project. As well there are still ongoing studying of sapropel as a organic active feed additive in animal production.
Wat zijn de succesfactoren bij het oplossen van het probleem??
Communicatie, knowledge transfer, mutual cooperation between all parties involved.
Onverwacht mislukt, indien van toepassing
Still ongoing process to see how project will adapt in practice
Les geleerd
Projects of this type are voluminous and involve a lot of information. Sometimes the implementation and implementation of such projects in practice takes longer
Welke rol speelt de adviseur of adviesdienst binnen de praktijkcase
The advisor partook in frequent communication with clients through office consultations, on-farm visits, phone calls, as well as partaking in presentations and training events. Knowledge transfer.
Kan jouw aanpak worden overgedragen en/of aangepast voor andere innovatie-uitdagingen en regio's??
Ja.
