The NUTRI-CHECK NETwork to maximise site-specific precision in managing the nutrition of European arable crops.

在提高作物生产力的同时减少合成肥料的使用和养分损失，欧洲面临着巨大而紧迫的挑战。该建议旨在建立一个名为“营养检查网”的自我维持、多方参与的专题网络，促进整个欧洲农场一级采用最佳的田间具体营养管理做法。在9个国家，农民的作物营养俱乐部（CNC）将确定并分享他们对作物营养的不确定性的性质、他们面临的挑战和改变的障碍。决策系统和营养工具（包括商业产品、服务和最近的研究成果）将由来自欧洲各地的国家专家（包括主要农民）汇集到一个共同的在线nutrition - check NET平台。然后，CNCs将评估从工具箱中选择的新协议和工具的有效性，以应对其主要挑战。然后，他们将共同创造和采用针对农场和田地的“管理措施”方法，以解决他们的作物营养挑战。农民和专家对协议和工具的评估将涉及其易用性、可信度、成本和收益。初步和最终评估将在整个网络中共享，以确定“最佳做法”，这些做法将通过与其他相关专题网络和EIP-AGRI的联络等方式进行展示和广泛传播。工具箱和最佳做法将在欧盟农场手册上永久提供和改进。广泛采用“测量管理”或“检查改变”的作物营养方法将加强养分循环和作物生产力，同时减少整个欧洲的合成肥料使用和养分损失。

Europe faces huge and urgent challenges of increasing crop productivity whilst reducing use of synthetic fertilisers and nutrient losses. This proposal is to establish a self-sustaining, multi-actor, Thematic Network called “NUTRI-CHECK NET” that builds farm-level adoption of best field-specific nutrient management practices across Europe. In nine countries farmers’ Crop Nutrition Clubs (CNC) will identify and share the nature of their uncertainties about crop nutrition, their challenges and barriers to change. Decision-systems and nutrition tools (including commercial products, services, and recent research outputs) will be assembled by national experts from across Europe, including leading farmers, into a common online NUTRI-CHECK NET platform. CNCs will then evaluate effectiveness of new protocols and tools selected from the a toolbox to meet their main challenges. Thence they will co-create and adopt farm- and field specific ‘measure-to-manage’ approaches that address their crop nutrition challenge(s). Evaluations of protocols and tools by farmers and experts will address their ease of use, trustworthiness, costs, and benefits. Initial and final evaluations will be shared across the Network to define ‘best practices’, which will be demonstrated and disseminated widely, including through liaison with other relevant Thematic Networks and EIP-AGRI. The toolbox and best practices will be held accessible and improvable in perpetua on EU FarmBook. Widespread adoption of ‘measure-to-manage’ or ‘check-to-change’ approaches to crop nutrition will enhance nutrient recycling and crop productivity, whilst reducing synthetic fertiliser use and nutrient losses across Europe.
