Recycling of P and K in circular horticulture through compost application in sustainable growing media for fertigated strawberry cultivation
2018-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Peat replacement by compost in growing media can increase the sustainability of soilless cultivation. Compost, when mixed into growing media, is a source of fiber, i.e., a rooting medium, as well as an important source of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). Physical properties as well as nutrient levels in growing media are known to affect plant growth and health. Therefore we monitored the evolution o...
