Dagerskog, with contributions from: M. Kjellén et al. (2010). Practical Guidance on the Use of Urine in Crop Production. SEI, EcoSanRes series: 2010-1. ISBN 9789186125219.

It also includes guidance on how to start activities that will facilitate the introduction of new fertilizers to the agricultural community. The handbook should help in establishing links between research and professionals interested in implementation of sustainable sanitation systems. It is easy to read and informative, with examples from case studies and hints on further reading for those interested.

The target group is mainly professionals and extension workers in the agricultural sector. In addition, the authors would like to see this text used by water and sanitation, planning and environment professionals in order to establish cross-sectoral links since the use of urine in crop production touches on several of these areas at the same time. Important readers are also decisionmakers on all levels, as well as the donor community.
