## Description

This MCP server provides precise calculations for agricultural nutrient management. It allows AI agents to determine plant-available N, P2O5, and K2O based on animal type and manure form. Users can forecast long-term nitrogen release using `predict_nitrogen_mineralization`, assess environmental impact with `assess_phosphorus_risk`, and estimate groundwater safety via `evaluate_leaching_potential`. It is designed to help farmers and agronomists manage manure application rates and minimize environmental runoff.

## Tools

### assess_phosphorus_risk
Evaluates the environmental risk of phosphorus accumulation in the soil

### calculate_nutrient_availability
Determines the total amount of plant-available N, P2O5, and K2O for the current application

### evaluate_leaching_potential
Estimates the risk of nitrogen leaching into groundwater

### predict_nitrogen_mineralization
Forecasts the release of nitrogen in future years to assist in long-term nutrient management

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the available nutrients for 500kg of poultry manure applied as a solid form at a rate of 2 tons per hectare using surface application.
```

**Response:** 
```
The available nutrients for this application are 45.2 kg of Nitrogen, 12.8 kg of P2O5, and 38.5 kg of K2O.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the nitrogen leaching risk if I apply 100kg of available nitrogen using surface application?
```

**Response:** 
```
The nitrogen leaching risk is rated as Elevated due to the surface application method.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Predict the nitrogen released in 3 years if 50kg of nitrogen was available from an application in 2024.
```

**Response:** 
```
In 2027, the predicted nitrogen released will be 12.4 kg, with a cumulative release of 34.8 kg since 2024.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this tool handle nitrogen release over time?**
The `predict_nitrogen_mineralization` tool uses a decay-based model to forecast how organic nitrogen is converted into plant-available forms over multiple growing seasons.

**Can I assess the risk of phosphorus buildup in my soil?**
Yes, by using `assess_phosphorus_risk`, you can evaluate the risk level and index score based on the amount of phosphorus applied and current soil levels.

**Does the application method affect the results?**
Yes, the `calculate_nutrient_availability` and `evaluate_leaching_potential` tools account for whether manure is applied via surface application or incorporated into the soil.
