This Animal Manure is fermented in Such A Way That Farmers Can Use Renure As Artificial Fertilizer. This way they can spread their surplus of manure over their own land.
In Addition, The Agricultural Sector Becomes Less Dependent on Expensive Artificial Fertilizers. Several Dutch Ministers of Agriculture Have Lobbied for Approval in Brussels. For Example, The Netherlands Said That Renure Contributes to Strategic Independence, AS Much Artificial Fertilizer is produced with natural gas from, Among Others, Russia.
