- 2.1a
Conduct experiments on different agricultural practices to discover what are the best ways to reduce pollution without compromising on growth, food quality or create other impacts
- 2.1b
Genetic research will be conducted to work out which genes in crops affect how well they use nitrogen so more nitrogen efficient crops, which create less waste, can be developed
- 2.2
Working closely with villages across South Asia, surveys will help determine the main cause of nitrogen waste as well as possible challenges in adopting different practices
