Summary

Organic crop production is growing, but crop yields are still below potential. The purpose of our project “Nutrients for higher organic yields (NutHY)” is to increase yields and resource efficiency in organic crop production by optimizing nutrient supply. Growing green manure is an important tool to improve fertilization by biological nitrogen (N) fixation but also by mobilization and release of other nutrients such as phosphorus (P). However, development and performance of green manure are affected by low soil nutrient availability that is often reported as a problem in organic arable farms, especially with regard to P.
