This project seeks to evaluate the unique properties of graphene to more effectively engineer novel fertilizers with properties that can enhance nutrient efficiency and reduce losses to the environment. More efficient and effective fertilizer formulations are needed to improve nutrient use efficiency in agricultural systems globally, and for effective biofortification of staple food crops with essential micronutrients. Nitrogen may be lost from soil through leaching and gaseous losses to the atmosphere. Phosphorus, as well as copper, manganese and zinc, are prone to reactions in soils and during manufacturing which reduces their effectiveness.

该项目旨在评估石墨烯的独特性质，以更有效地设计具有提高养分效率和减少对环境损失的特性的新型肥料。需要更有效和更有效的肥料配方，以提高全球农业系统的养分利用效率，并对主要粮食作物进行有效的生物强化，添加必要的微量营养素。土壤中的氮素可能通过淋溶和大气中的气态损失而流失。磷以及铜、锰和锌在土壤和生产过程中容易发生反应，从而降低了它们的有效性。
