Climate change has brought about changing conditions for agriculture. In recent years precipitation deficit during the growing season has led to a shortage of forage in Sweden. During dry years, irrigation is necessary to achieve optimal yields. In addition, irrigation can bring about positive effects on the environment by better use of production inputs. The aim of the project is to investigate quantitative and qualitative aspects that can lead to a reduced need of fodder. We will also make an analysis of the potential revenues and costs for the implementation of irrigation systems including costs for water supply.
The main objective of the project is to assess the effects of different irrigation strategies on yield levels and yield quality in terms of application timing and irrigation amount based on climate, crop development stages, soil type and soil water content. The results obtained will directly be translate into guidelines and recommendations to be used in extension services.
Klimatförändringar har medfört förändrade förutsättningar för lantbruket. De senaste årens nederbördsfattiga odlingssäsonger har lett till en brist på grovfoder i Sverige. Under torra år är bevattning nödvändigt för att uppnå optimala skördar. Utöver nyttan av bevattning för växtproduktion kan bevattning leda till positiva miljöeffekter så som bättre nyttjande av produktionsinsatser. Syftet med detta projekt är att utreda kvantitets- och kvalitetsaspekter som kan leda till ett minskat behov av kraftfoder. Vi ska också göra en analys av potentiella intäkter och kostnader för implementering av bevattningssystem och vattenanskaffning.
Huvudmålet med projektet är att bedöma effekter av olika bevattningsstrategier på avkastning och kvalité gällande tidpunkt och bevattningsmängd utifrån klimat, grödans utvecklingsstadier, jordart och markvattenhalt. Erhållna resultat kommer att direkt att kunna användas vid rådgivning till bevattning av slåttervall under olika odlingsförutsättningar.

To grow with reduced use of glyphosate is of great concern driven by the requirements for integrated pest management, the risk of herbicide resistance and a potential coming ban on glyphosate. It requires balancing between environmental effects and impact on yield and economy. The project's goal is …
