Inagro pilot plots offer good test case for constructed wetlands, woodchips filter and MBBR

03 May 2023

A few years ago, Inagro bought new test fields that needed to be drained: the Godelieve fields. As such, this was the ideal location to test different denitrification techniques for NuReDrain.

Can nitrate filters help mitigate nitrate pressure in surface water?

03 May 2023

Even when farmers fertilize according to plant needs, this does not guarantee that nitrate pressure in surface water remains below EU targets. Inagro (Belgium) tested filter systems on pilot plots and…

Towards a realistic cost and impact assessment of measures for reducing nutrient export from agricultural landscapes

19 December 2022

The costs and the impact of technical measures to reduce nutrient loads in tile-drained landscapes depend on many factors and are hardly predictable. Therefore, it is reasonable not to calculate with …
