Qual foi o desafio/problema abordado?
After summarizing results of fertilization and monitoring leaching of nutrients during droughty period in 2018-2019 in five fields where a drainage system was installed, leaching of general nitrogen in regulated systems was 2.5 times lower in comparison to unregulated drainage systems. Results of research carried out in other countries were proven when yield in regulated drainage systems was about 20 per cent higher than yield in unregulated ones. Research was carried out by researchers of Vytautas Magnus University Agriculture Academy and specialists of Lithuanian Agricultural Advisory Service.
Quais são os fatores de sucesso na resolução do problema?
Farmers’ initiative and involvement; droughty year suitable for demonstration of results proving effectiveness of the technology; interinstitutional co-operation during the project, dissemination of information about results, co-operation with private companies result of which is application of technology in other Lithuanian farms.
