The main objectives of this study is to develop a methodological approach, as a study case, to the valuation of good nutrient practice within the Rondonópolis municipality in the upper Pantanal region in Brazil, specifically:
Investigating options for improvement of NUE (e.g. application of 4R Nutrient Stewardship Concepts), demonstrating social and economic benefits for health, environment, and the supply of food and energy, and;
Quantifying the multiple costs and benefits of meeting the nutrient management targets for food security, marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems, mitigation of greenhouse gases and other climate threats, and improvement of human health as proposed in the Our Nutrient World (2013) report.
