In this pilot project, the cooperating parties are researching how the use of urine as a fertiliser substitute can be deployed and to what extent this contributes to circularity on the participating farms. Within this pilot, the dairy farms, which have a Lely Sphere barn system, a CowToilet or a VrijlevenStal from Hanskamp, can apply mineral flows in a different way. Thus, data is collected on the impact of these the systems, which can contribute to the optimisation of the use of mineral flows.
In the longer term, the results of this pilot can play an important role in the European discussion on artificial fertiliser substitutes. Fertiliser substitutes can contribute to European food security, strategic autonomy and the sustainability and profitability of dairy farms, so it is important that the scientific knowledge on this is expanded and included in European laws and regulations.
For this pilot, the participating parties are looking for dairy farmers who are open to innovation on their farms and willing to participate in this research. Registration for the pilot has yet to be opened. Interested parties can already register at [email protected] and [email protected].

This PPS is a collaboration between the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature, Wageningen Livestock Research, Slootsmid, NCM: Nederlands Centrum voor Mestverwaarding, Hanskamp and Lely.
