Management of hedges and marginal areas to improve biodiversity
Hedgerows and marginal areas, such as field margins and road verges, are a typical landscape feature in many parts of Europe. They provide an important habitat for a variety of flora and fauna. However, increased agricultural intensification and associated land use changes over the past decades have led to a dramatic decrease in the biodiversity of hedgerows and marginal areas.

NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735. FACTSHEET NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY Key information Functionalized nanocellulose membranes can take up nitrate and phosphate. These membranes can be put in a water treatment unit. As the membranes are biobased, degradable materials, they can after use be added to the soil, thus returning the leached nutrients back for their original purpose providing fertilizers (nutrient recycling).
