C-BASC innovation projects
The Center for Interdisciplinary Studies on Biodiversity, Agroecology, Society and Climate (C-BASC) seeks to deepen the links between research, innovation and training. C-BASC has two main approaches to innovation. Our innovation projects are listed below (click on them to learn more); other projects will follow shortly.
Valorize human urine in agriculture?
Urine represents 1% of the volume of wastewater for 80% of nitrogen and 50% of phosphorus, essential nutrients for plant growth.
A collaborative knowledge base on plants
