THE LIFE+ AQUA project
AQUA intends to demonstrate how it is
possible to reduce water pollution from
nutrients at river basin level scale by
optimising the use of nitrogen and
phosphorus in livestock farms.

LIFE+ AQUA: Objectives
• To reduce nitrogen in manure by increasing the N
efficiency in livestock intake.
• To improve the fertilisation efficiency by maximising
the efficiency of nutrients use (N-P) (slurry application
techniches – crop management)
• To reduce the pressure and impact in agricultural
catchments with intensive livestock rearing by manure
fraction separation and transfer of the solid fraction
outside NVZ.
• To reduce N and P losses through the application of
good agro-environmental practices.

Why Northen Italy?
• In this part of Italy more than 70% of the
livestock is reared:
– 68% of dairy cattle,
– 61% of other cattle,
– 85% of pigs,
– 80% of poultry.

Action 1
Reduction of N excreted
• Reduction of N excreted through the application of
low N diets in pigs and high N efficiency diets for
dairy and beef cattle
• 10 demonstrative farms:
4 dairy cattle farms
3 pig farms
2 (+1) beef cattle farms

Action 2
Cropping management
• Adoption of management and agronomical
techniques to reduce N leaching to water and to
the atmosphere.
– Application of the best available techniques to
distribute slurries: fertirrigation, use of trailing shoes or
band spreading on meadows, microirrigation
– Crop rotations characterised by high N uptake, long
cropping seasons, ecc.

Action 3
Environmental measures
• To demonstrate the efficacy of buffer strips and
wetlands to reduce nutrient losses to water.
• The effects of water deriving from soils
fertilised with 170 kg N/ha/year and 250
kgN/ha/year (as requested by the Italian
Derogation) will be compared in the
demonstration
sites

• Manure management through a consortium which separates the solid fraction.
• Manure solid fraction transfer to farms with lack of organic matter in soils

Traceability and Certification
• To apply good traceability practices to the
nutrient’s management producing
evidence of:
– the use of low protein diets (A1)
– the transfer of manure solid fractions to
zones with high need of organic matter (A4).

Action 6 Economic & environmental evaluation
• Economic and environmental evaluation
of action from 1 to 3– Economic assessment by mean of balance sheet of
demonstrative farms + nearby farms
– LCA methodology will be applied to evaluate the
environmental impact in the nine demonstrative
farms before and after applying the new
managements techniques (A1-A2).
