FERTITEC is a Horizon Europe project positioned to deliver a comprehensive solution for waste recycling and sustainable fertiliser production from secondary raw materials. The principal objective is to transform waste into high-quality fertilisers, promote circular economy, and mitigate environmental impact, thereby aligning with the EU’s goals of sustainable agriculture, waste reduction, circular economy, and bioeconomy enhancement.
FERTITEC is committed to develop competitive fertilisers that not only benefit agricultural yield but also promote a circular economy model, aligning with the EU’s strategic focus. This dual focus of environmental sustainability and economic viability resonates with the objectives of our previous projects, which aimed to boost the marketability of bio-based products and harmonise global sustainability certification systems respectively.
By involving key actors from the agriculture sector and facilitating multi-stakeholder collaboration through our KEP, FERTITEC fosters a community-driven approach to boost sustainable innovation in the fertiliser sector.
We seek to make a tangible impact at national and regional levels, by bringing our best available fertilising techniques to the fore in several EU countries, as well as extrapolating our outcomes to the African Union landscape by providing practical recommendations and guidelines. Overall, with FERTITEC we aim the adoption of our alternative fertilising products and the wider transformation of the agricultural sector globally.
