From November 2025 to January 2026

Project Title: PlantaGO, Biological nitrification inhibition in leys including Plantago lanceolata

Methods: In a pot-experiment testing different ley mixtures

  • Measurements of greenhouse gas emissions
  • Assessment of plant growth and nitrogen uptake

Objectives: Familiarize myself with laboratory and greenhouse biochemical methods to understand the effect of this plant on soil nitrogen transformations and deepen my knowledge about organic agriculture research.

Enhance nitrogen use efficiency in cropping systems by incorporating Plantago lanceolata to reduce harmful N2O emissions and nitrate leaching losses while maintaining productivity.
