So far, TUdi has developed nine multilingual leaflets providing guidance on managing soil health within the scope of the following topics:
Improving soil structure to retain more soil moisture
Gully control
Nutrient loss by water movement, runoff and leaching
Fertilisation management
Technical measures for soil erosion control
Soil protection and ecosystem services by hedgerows
Erosion Control in potato production with in-furrow micro-dams and cover crops
Detection of a higher form of erosion by remote sensing data
Organic fertilisation using animal manures
The leaflets cover various aspects of soil management, such as assessing soil structure stability, detecting erosion (including rills and gullies), and managing nutrient loss through water movement (runoff and leaching). As part of the TUdi project, an app has been developed to support farmers in these areas, offering tools for soil structure, erosion, and fertilisation management. Each leaflet outlines its focus area, identifies the associated problems, and explains how the TUdi app can assist in addressing them. The leaflets also include a detailed description of protective measures, the pros and cons of various techniques, and a section on their effects, results, and case studies.
Еach leaflet is now officially available in eight languages (English, German, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, Bulgarian, Hungarian, Czech), and can be found on TUdi’s website as well as on EU-FarmBook - a Horizon Europe project that has developed an online platform for the gathering and sharing of practical agricultural and forestry knowledge. The Chinese translations, however, are only available on the project website.
