3. Petrousa Drama, Greece – WP & AUA – P17 & P1
Demonstrator: Experimental glasshouse of Wonderplant SA – AUA – Recycling of fertigation effluents in greenhouses using ion selective electrodes
Type and volume of input materials/products
Tomato cultivation (20.1 ha) in a closed soilless system with mineral wool as substrate. Conventional management of nutrition that entails periodic discharge of fertigation effluents. Cultivation of fruit vegetables in a closed-loop soilless system
Type & volume of output materials/products
Use of novel DSS in combination with ion selective electrodes (ISE) to optimise recycling of the fertigation effluents (drainwater), thus eliminating discharge of NO3– and P to aquifers, and maximising nutrient use efficiency (application in both demonstration sites).
