Soil organic carbon is an important factor for soil health and productivity. Soil carbon sequestration (SCS) also plays a crucial role in meeting the climate goals. For that purpose, catch- and cover crops are identified as a cost-effective management practice that combines SCS with other ecosystem services. There is a great need to estimate the amount of current and future SCS in Swedish soils achievable with this practice. This project aims to develop a robust and dynamic method to estimate the potential area of implementation and associated SCS potential. We will also analyze how soil organic carbon contents affects crop yield and resilience to climate change, and address problems relating to bias in data from long-term field trials. Results will improve extension service tools used to assess the effect of management practices on soil fertility and carbon storage, being useful for farmers and decision-makers at various levels, and for the Swedish climate reporting.
Mull som till drygt hälften består av organiskt kol är en av de viktigaste faktorer för markhälsa. Kolinlagring i mark spelar också en central roll för att uppnå klimatmålen. I detta syfte har fång- och mellangrödor identifierats som en kostnadseffektiv brukningsmetod som kombinerar dessa syften med andra ekosystemtjänster. Det finns ett stort behov av att uppskatta den nuvarande och framtida kolfastläggningen i mark som kan uppnås med mellangrödor. Detta projekt avser att utveckla en robust och dynamisk metod för att skatta den potentiella areal där mellangrödor kunde odlas. Vi kommer också analysera hur mullhalten påverkar grödors produktivitet och motståndskraft mot klimatförändringar, och skatta felkällor i data från långliggande fältförsök. Resultat kommer att förbättra rådgivningsverktyg som används för att beräkna effekter av olika brukningsmetoder på bördighet och kolinlagring. De blir användbara för jordbrukare, beslutsfattare och för den svenska klimatrapporteringen.

Cereal production is limited by many different factors. Leaf diseases are often well known, while diseases on roots are more difficult to identify. Root diseases are often caused by oomycetes, fungus-like microorganisms that live for years in soil and on old root debris, parasitizing the roots of …

Heat stress is expected to be of major concern in Swedish animal production systems in the future. The air temperatures in parts of Sweden are expected to correspond to today's temperatures in southern Europe, where livestock experience heat stress today. Excessive thermal load affects the welfare …
