The first B-Ferst article is officially out:
“Agriculture goes green – New bio-fertilisers to make farming more sustainable”

Abstract:

“The European Union has updated its rules on fertilisers, which almost exclusively covered mined or chemically produced materials. While new organic fertilisers will now be able to enter the EU market in 2022, researchers are testing innovative bio-based solutions to boost the circular economy.

Over the last two centuries, the world population has increased from one billion to 7.7 billion today. As the population keeps rising, so does food demand. Therefore, agriculture needs to become more productive and resilient to climate shocks while reducing waste and dependency on non-renewable resources.“
