Lead Researcher (PI): Henry Wilson
Institution: Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada
Total WGRF Funding: $21,203
Co-Funders: Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada, Ostara, OFCM
Start Date: 2019
Project Length: 3 Years
Objectives:

Evaluate grain and forage yields, soil health, arbuscular mycorrhizal root colonization, and runoff water quality following fertilization with high purity struvite produced by the Pearl process to alleviate phosphorus deficiency in low phosphorus input grain and forage production systems.
