A major challenge facing agriculture is handling water excess and deficit exacerbated by climate change, while reducing eutrophication. Controlled drainage (CD) has the potential to address these issues and improve yield stability. Despite CDs clear benefits and state subsidies for CD installation, CD adoption among Swedish farmers has been exceedingly low. We will establish CD demonstration fields to communicate the productivity, economic and environmental benefits to farmers, and to address their concerns. Field experiments with different crops and groundwater level scenarios will be performed on sites with CD-systems and soil moisture sensors will be installed. Field measures and sensor data will be collected to propose strategies for improving yield stability with CD sub-irrigation. The project will utilize a multidisciplinary research approach involving researchers at RISE, farmers, sensor experts, advisors and Swedish board of Agriculture representatives.
En stor utmaning för jordbruket är att klimatförändringarna kommer förvärra problemen med vattenöverskott och underskott, samtidigt som eutrofieringen ska minska. Reglerad dränering (RD) kan reducera näringsläckaget, och förbättra vattenhushållningen och avkastningsstabiliteten. Trots RDs tydliga fördelar och statliga subventioner för RD-installation har få svenska lantbrukare installerat RD. I projektet kommer flera RD-demonstrationsfält upprättas för att kommunicera RDs produktions- och miljöfördelar till lantbrukare, och bemöta deras reservationer. Fältexperiment med olika grödor och olika strategier för grundvattennivå kommer att utföras på RD-fälten. Insamling av fält- och sensordata kommer göras för att utveckla strategier för att förbättra underbevattningsstrategier som leder till högre avkastningsstabiliteten. Projektet är tvärvetenskapligt med forskare på RISE, sensorexperter, lantbrukare, rådgivare och Jordbruksverket.

We need to remediate the capacity of agricultural landscapes to retain water, nutrients and sediments to make them
more resilient to the increasing frequency of flooding, drought and pollution expected with the climate change. It can
be done by remediating existing narrow ditches into ditches with …

It is well known that storage of animal manure and digestate causes emissions of methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and ammonia (NH3). A crust on liquid manure acts both as a physical barrier for NH3 and as a biofilter that oxidize CH4 and NH3. However, N2O can be formed in some crusts, and there …
