En este documento se sistematiza la información resultante de la implementación de las actividades del proyecto. Debido a la coyuntura sanitaria por el COVID19, algunas de las acciones de este proyecto (Grupo Operativo de Alimentación Pública Sostenible 4.0 (GOSA), mejorar las competencias de productores hortofrutícolas ecológicos de proximidad para favorecer la transición hacia la sostenibilidad de comedores públicos de Madrid, Valencia y Canarias, se han visto afectada en su implementación. Las actividades de este informe son un ejemplo de ello. Inicialmente el objetivo a abordar con estas actividades era realizar un estudio en el marco de los comedores universitarios sobre los hábitos alimentarios y preferencias, así como hábitos alimentarios y preferencias ex post (implementación del proyecto GOSA).

Agricultural run-off and subsurface drainage tiles transport a significant amount of nitrogen and phosphorus leached after fertilization. alchemia-nova GmbH in collaboration with University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna developed two multi-layer vertical filter systems to address the agricultural run-off issue, which has been installed on the slope of an agricultural field in Mistelbach, Austria. While another multi-layer addressing subsurface drainage water is implemented in Gleisdorf, Austria. The goal is to develop a drainage filter system to retain water and nutrients. Both multi-layer filter systems contain biochar and other substrates with adsorption properties of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus). The filter system can be of practical use if an excess of nutrients being washed out is of concern in the fields of the practitioner by keeping the surrounding waters clean. This approach may result in economic value by re-using the saturated biochar as fertilizer and improving the soil structure, thus increasing long-term soil fertility.

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 case study is drafting new legislation that allows renting forestland for multiple purposes in order to increase economic efficiency and maintain a balance between all ecosystem services. This Russian case works on regulation mechanisms so that people renting forestland can use it for multiple purposes, and to include ecosystem services in the Forest Code.
