Fuel consumption (L/ha)
Fuel consumption (liters / hectare), required for production per cycle, measured and compared between plots with conventional agriculture (control group) and plots with sustainable technologies promoted by the project (innovations). Measured in side by side plots.
Plots n: 8
Fertilizer-use efficiency (nitrogen)
Nitrogen used in the development of the crop measured and compared with the required amount of Nitrogen in this production system (19kg/ton) in plots with sustainable technologies promoted by the project (innovations).
