"Contents:\nHuman interference with the biogeochemical cycles of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) has resulted in unacceptable global changes. The rate at which we convert N2 from the atmosphere into fertilizer N, and mine finite sources of P for agricultural use, results in severe environmental issues. Hence, we need to develop more circular agricultural systems that reduce external inputs and environmental losses, reuse waste streams, and maximize resource use efficiency.\nThis course provides insights to assess and improve the circularity of N and P flows in agriculture. Circularity will be approached from a biogeochemical perspective, at field and farm scale, with a focus on the soil-plant continuum. The course includes the following topics:\nBrush up on soil nutrient cycles\nLatest insights on circularity\nAssessing circularity with nutrient flow analysis\nOptimizing flows of multiple nutrients\nPreventing nutrient loss from agricultural fields\nRecycling nutrients by reusing waste products\nDesigning for circularity\n\nThis advanced course is intended for students who are registered as an MSc student in the MEE, MOA or MPS programmes and all those who have passed the course(s) listed under “Mandatory knowledge” successfully. Nutrients in a Circular Agriculture is one of the preparatory courses for an MSc thesis in the Soil Biology group.\nLearning outcomes:\nAfter successful completion of this course, students are expected to be able to:\nevaluate circularity based on nutrient flow analyses\nanalyse the use efficiency of multiple nutrients\nevaluate management options to reduce nutrient losses\npredict the fertilizer value of organic waste products\nanalyse the potential of waste products as fertilizers\nassess options to improve circularity in agriculture" . .
