The amount and nutritive content of forages has major impact on equine behaviour, health, and disease. In the Nordic countries, forages for horses consist almost exclusively of grasses, and to a limited extent of legumes. Legumes contain more crude protein than grasses, hence locally produced legumes can potentially replace imported protein-rich feedstuffs like soybeans. The digestibility of crude protein from different forage sources is however largely unknown in horses, resulting in difficulties when evaluating different protein sources for horses. There is also a lack of consistency and transparency in feed evaluation systems for horses in the Nordic countries. The aim of the project is to generate new knowledge of high scientific quality as well high practical value for the horse industry in the Nordic countries on protein and energy value of grass and legume forages for horses.
Mengden av grovfôr og næringsstoffinnhold har stor betydning for hestens atferd, helse og sykdom. Grovfôr til hester består nesten utelukkende av gress, og belgplanter anvendes sjeldent. Belgplanter inneholder mer råprotein enn gress, og belgplanter lokalt produsert kan potentielt erstatte importerte proteinrike råvare, som for eksempel soyabønner. Fordøyeligheten av råprotein fra grovfôr er dog for det meste ukjent hos hester, og det er vanskelig å evaluere forskjellige proteinrike fôr korrekt mot hverandre. Fôrmiddelevaluerings systemer til hester er ugjennomskuelig og mangler logisk oppbygning i de nordiske lande. Formålet med prosjektet er å skape viten av høy vitenskapelig kvalitet og med betydelig praktisk bruk for hestenæringen i de nordiske lande om protein og energiverdien av gress og belgplanter til hester.

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 …

Even if Sweden is historically regarded as a water-affluent country, lately sustainable water use and water circularity have become topics of high concern. Irrigation is dependent on high quality water resources, and the need for accessible water resources becomes stronger under exceptionally dry …

An improved strategy for agricultural drainage is important for both economic and environmental reasons. There are indications on environmental benefits of a good drainage but lack of studies that directly shows this. The aim of the project is to develop a basis for design recommendations for new …

The use of safely reclaimed water for agriculture irrigation is a promising solution to address water shortages, especially on Gotland. One primary concern is the introduction of organic micropollutants (OMPs), such as pharmaceuticals and other chemicals, into the agricultural ecosystem and food …

Swedish biogas production is crucial to reach environmental and climate targets and manure represents a great potential, corresponding to ca 2,7 Twh. However, the production from manure-based facilities currently only reaches around ca 64 GWh. Due to the character of manure it is difficult to reach …

Poultry manure is commonly used as fertilizer for crop production, however, high nutrient contents and unbalanced nutrient ratios limit application rates and require larger land areas for spreading, driving up manure handling costs. Techniques for incineration and pyrolysis of biomass are …
