Research Project:
THE DEVELOPMENT, OPTIMIZATION, AND APPLICATION OF NOVEL, SLOW-RELEASE ENGINEERED FERTILIZER OF HIGH PERFORMANCE
Location: Bioproduct Chemistry and Engineering Research
Project Number: 5325-41000-044-09
Project Type:
Trust
Start Date: Feb 01, 2007
End Date: Apr 30, 2010
Objective:
Project seeks to create a chemical fertilizer alternative that is superior in performance, economically competive, and environmentally responsible.
Approach:
Research will be conducted to develop fertilizer formulations and to design polymer matrix for encapsulation. Subsequently, formulations will be optimized for sustained release of encapulated materials, and evaluated for the impact on the plants root development, growth, yield, and past resistence.
