Farmer Guide to Fertilizing with Urine Available Online
The Rich Earth Institute has a new publication available free, online, Farmer Guide to Fertilizing with Urine. The Rich Earth Institute reports that interest in urine nutrient reclamation has been surging, driven by spiking synthetic fertilizer prices, global supply disruptions, and increasing regulations on aquatic nutrient pollution. This 27-page guide compiles information and best practices from Rich Earth’s research with farmer-partners in Southern Vermont, as well as the literature from a growing community of researchers and farmers around the world who are reconnecting links in the food nutrient cycle. This guide is primarily intended for farmers interested in partnering with established urine reclamation projects.
