My choicesMeasures   Estimated improvement (you can change the %)
   Stripe spread manure

With this method, the nitrogen loss will be much less than with spreading by wagon. Requires other equipment.

 
   Spread under the right conditions

Low temperature and cloudy is best, fast molding

 
   Less N-fertilizer

Precision agriculture, better adapted, avoid overlaps

 
Climate measures through increased vegetation cover and carbon sequestration
   Extra meadow years in circulation

Means 4-5 years and preferably more, this will be able to build up carbon in the soil

 
   Spring ploughing, cover crops (cereals)

Cover crops, winter grains, spring ploughing. Binds nitrogen and conserves more carbon in the soil

 
   Direct drilling (grain)

Saves diesel, binds nitrogen and preserves more carbon in the soil. Requires new equipment

 
   Biochar spreading

Spreading of biochar on the cereal area
