FOR INTERNATIONAL
R&D PROJECTS
Topics mentioned A) nutrient management (9) B) GM alternatives for safer environment (9) C) additives [mycorrhizae, biostimulants, bio wetting agent, bacteria, etc.] (7) D) physical properties – water-relations – irrigation - wettability (6) E) aqua & hydroponics (5) F) root growth & development (4) G) organic fertilizers (3) H) composts & properties (3) I) recycling (2) J) materials [wood, bark, biochar, coir, use of wastes as GM] (2)
clearly identify the growing system(s) to study:
Materials - & their own properties (B x H x J) Nutrient management (A x G)
Additives (C)
Water management (D) Plant/Root growth (F)
Considering the WG Growing Media s.s.: Soilless culture (no soil, no soil improvers) “Plant in limited volumes for root development (pots, containers, etc. ≈ potted plants)” vs Aqua/Hydroponic systems vs Compost as Soil Improver
Proposal(s): towards more sustainable growing systems Materials and their own properties B x H x J, +/- additives (C) Water management (D) and/or Nutrient management (A x G) Effects on plant/root growth (F), etc.
Chairs / team leaders? (3-5 persons - per project?, per WG?) First objectives: identify main issues and define R&D questions, identify partners (& level of involvement).
Thanks for your attention …
… and let
us go together!
