HIGHLIGHTS
- A laboratory study investigating the effects of novel biobased fertilisers on soil quality indicators.
- Overall, the application of biobased fertilisers improved soil quality.
- Compost improved soil quality most, followed by a plant-based fertiliser and a biogas digestate.
- The amount of total and easily degradable carbon added was only related to some positive effects.
- Some but not all effects of long-term field application of compost could be predicted in the laboratory.
