Use of NIR sensors for quantification of nutrient contents in liquid farm manure - FEZ-FHK (MuD NIRS)
Project
Project code: 2820ABS200
Contract period: 09.07.2021
- 30.06.2024
Budget: 909,318 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Keywords: crop production, fertilization
Determining the nutrient concentration based on NIR technology makes it possible for the first time to implement site-specific and needs-based fertilisation with liquid farm fertilisers in real time over large areas. This offers a better use of the site-specific yield potential and increases efficiency. In addition, the NIR technology enables a transformation of today's management into a future-oriented, ecologically, economically and socially sustainable agriculture that can be flexibly adapted to dynamically changing framework conditions. The recording and comparison of differently determined nutrient concentrations is a fundamental task of the project and will be carried out uniformly. In carrying out the subsequent data evaluation, there is close cooperation with the actors in the BLE research project 'Development of a test procedure for quality assurance in the use of NIR sensors'. The methods and results of the research project will be used to apply them to the MuD farms in the regions. The combination of different focal points with different approaches in the regions illuminates the large-scale use of NIR sensors in agricultural practice in a holistic way. The results are made freely available. This will increase the safety for receiving farms with regard to nutrient content and the acceptance of manure uptake on the part of arable farms.
