Is it possible to produce nitrogen fertiliser on-farm? Would this reduce the agricultural sector’s greenhouse gas emissions? Early-stage agri-tech companies Atmonia and N2 Applied say yes. They have each developed an alternative approach to generating fertiliser, using renewable energy sources, operating from a shipping container, offering the potential for carbon-neutral production.

Getting the right business model to balance resource usage with socio-economic conditions is crucial to capturing new markets. Speakers will discuss the issues at the forthcoming Agri-TechE event on Thursday 25th February 2021.
