Improving N use and performance of arable crops on organic arable farms using an expert group approach (OF0178) [PDF]
This is the final report for Defra project OF0178. Government seeks to support the development of organic farming in the UK, but nitrogen (N) almost always limits productivity on organic farms.

Sugarcane juice is clarified and fermented with yeast to produce ethanol and CO₂. The broth is refined through distillation and molecular sieves, yielding fuel‐grade ethanol stored for transport. Bagasse, vinasse, and residues are recycled as valuable by‐products, enabling a sustainable bioethanol production pathway ABSTRACT This study investigates the
