A sustainable use of phosphorus fertilizers has engaged a large number of researchers, especially how to measure
the soil content of available phosphorus. However, the development of results to useful methods for agriculture has
not been a priority. The recommendations are based on extraction with ammonium lactate/acetic acid (P-AL), a
method shown that has shown to be inappropriate for soils with a pH>7, and are also neglecting the impact of soil
properties on phosphorus availability. Additionally, the contribution from the subsoil is ignored. In this project, data and
soil samples from long-term soil fertility trials will be used to develop critical values for P-Olsen, making this extraction
a useful alternative to P-AL. We will also investigate the transport of phosphorus to the subsoil, with intention to
identify soils with a high chance of phosphorus accumulation in deeper layers. Finally, the usefulness of including
more soil properties in the recommendations will be assessed.
En hållbar användning av fosfor i lantbruket har engagerat många forskare, inte minst angående hur markens
växttillgängliga fosforförråd kan mätas. Dock har vidareutveckling av resultat till användbara metoder för näringen inte
prioriterats. Rekommendationerna för gödsling baseras på en extraktion med ammoniumlaktat/ättiksyra (P-AL) som
påvisats vara olämplig för jordar med pH>7. Den tar inte heller hänsyn till den påverkan som markens egenskaper har
på fosforns tillgänglighet, och inte heller till alvens påverkan. I detta projekt skall data och jordprover från de
långliggande bördighetsförsöken användas för att beräkna kritiska nivåer av P-Olsen för olika grödor, så att P-Olsen
kan användas som ett praktiskt alternativ till P-AL. Vi ska även undersöka fosfortransport till alven, för att identifiera
vika jordar som har en hög sannolikhet för en anrikning av fosfor i djupare lager. Slutligen ska nyttan med att inkludera
ytterligare markegenskaper i rådgivningen undersökas.

The carbon footprint for ruminants is high compared to other food products of animal origin but grazing animals such
as beef and lamb have other positive effects on the environment such as increased biodiversity and carbon
sequestration. Beef- and lamb producers need clear guidelines on how to …

A main challenge for regions with intensive livestock production is phosphorus (P) surplus on farms, resulting in low P use efficiency and losses to waters. The project will provide solutions to increase P recycling from animal manure. This will decrease our dependency on imported P fertilizers, …

Young horses can develop cervical vertebral stenotic myelopathy and ataxia, known as "wobbler syndrome" and associated with loss of breeding value, reduced athletic potential and euthanasia. Some wobblers have osteochondrosis of their vertebral facet joints, but it is now known how this relates to …

Zinkoxid (ZnO) in feed prevents post weaning diarrhoea (PWD) and mortality in weaned piglets but, for environmental reasons, ZnO will be banned in the EU in 2022 despite that there remain herds that are dependent on the use of ZnO (or antibiotics) at weaning.
By metagenomic analysis (sequencing …
