The Baltic Sea Action Group (BSAG) is ?Nutrient Recycling Ecosystem?coordinator for the TEKES / Team Finland (national R&D fundingagency) BioNets programme, which aims to generate Finland?s bio- andcircular economy. BioNets provides funding for pilot projects andnetworking, coaching, market studies and promotion new technologies andcompany innovations. In TEKES case examples 2017, BSAG states thatnutrients are currently inefficiently used in agriculture, leading tophosphorus and nitrogen losses to the Baltic, and considers thatnutrient recycling could both resolve Finland?s dependency on nutrientimports and help restore the ecology of the Baltic Sea. BSAG?s objectiveis that solutions developed in the Baltic region can be exportedglobally to many other eutrophication impacted regions of the world.

SHORT ABOUT THE PROJECT

Project Industrial animal farms in the Baltic Sea Region - sustainable practices to reduce nutrient loads is a part of a long-term campaign of the Coalition Clean Baltic and Green Federation "GAJA", aiming to reduce the negative impact of large-scale animal production on the environment and local communities in the Baltic Sea Region, particularly by reducing nutrient run-off into the sea. The project is part-financed by the European Union. This website reflects only the view of the Coalition Clean Baltic.
