A wide range of visitors—including farmers, young people, and families—visited the exhibition stand. Recent scientific findings and their practical applications in agriculture were showcased, with a particular focus on soil structure and phosphorus loss reduction. One of the key topics was the use of gypsum as a soil amendment, highlighting its benefits for improving soil structure and supporting sustainable crop production.

Visitors received informational brochures on gypsum use, developed as part of the GYPREG project, and viewed a project video demonstrating how gypsum enhances soil properties. In addition, methods for assessing basic soil condition parameters and nutrient content were demonstrated.
