CFPN Research Themes

CFPN research is divided into nine key themes. Within each theme we have set goals for research:

  1. Evaluate new fertilizers and application methods on different crops
  2. Optimize the process of applying fertilizers for selected crops
  3. Create new nutrient diagnostic tools and methods
  4. Identify and evaluate methods to recycle nutrients from organic and mineral waste products
  5. Develop fertilization practices to improve the nutritional value of crops
  6. Create technologies and methods to improve fertilizer application to the plant’s canopy
  7. Develop ways to enhance the ability of plants to use available mineral nutrients
  8. Generate methods to improve soil health, post-harvest practices and a crop’s resistance to stress
  9. Develop new ways to share knowledge and tools for plant nutrition in developing countries
  10. Agricultural Big Data Analysis and Precision Agriculture
