Farmers are entrepreneurs that sometimes may feel that they are being managed in how to do their job as well as being piled under by rules and regulation. This may lead to growing displeasure, unhappiness and resistance amongst farmers at the expense of their relations with influencers, stakeholders, policy makers and society, who are often experiencing the same challenges. Approaches that encourage collaboration, discussion and working on perspectives that are carried more broadly can help to steer and reach multi stakeholders’ targets, wishes and desire s. One such approach is called in the Netherlands the ‘De Marke Model’. This model may serve as a basis, example or reference for similar approaches elsewhere.

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).
This factsheet explains how bringing a team of farmer, vet, feed and farm advisors together is sharing different sources of knowledge together, making the Multi Actor Farm Health approach an effective approach to improve biosecurity on poultry farms
