The main objective of nutriCLOUD is to reduce the N-surplus (N++) and total N-fertiliser amount through implementation of an innovatice technology (based on innovative on-the-go sensor) for plant-specific, optimized, and intelligent variable rate application of nitrogen fertilizer, which is reducing related cost and effects, while providing higher yield rates, and compliance with N-limits according to Nitrate Directive and respective regulations.

Expected impacts
- reduction of N++ by up to 15% locally, at a total area of 65,300 ha during project duration
- reduction of N demand by up to -10%, (e.g. 171 kg/ha instead of 190 kg/ha applied for winter wheat under uniform treatment or 173 - 176 kg with state-of-the-art variable rate nitrogen treatment
- increasing yields (e.g. winter wheat) by >6%
- increasing overall nutrient efficiency by up to +19%
- reducing nitrogen fertilizer-related CO2 footprint by 1,593t/y (up to -162t/company possible)
- reducing N-emissions to water (NO3, NH4, DON) caused by over-fertilization: we will reduce N-surplus that can not be used by the plants and save up to 59t/y contaminated leaching water reducing N-emissions to air (NH3, N20) caused by N-surplus by -6%
