The raw material potential in Swedish agriculture needs to be utilized more efficiently to produce sustainable biofuels and thereby increase security of supply and reach the goals of reducing emissions from the transport sector by 2030. Aim of the project is examine how farms can adapt and cooperate to deliver ILUC-free biomasses to biorefineries without negative long-term effects on soil fertility and at the same time increase self-sufficiency of energy, nutrient and feed. In the proposed project, the potential of agriculture to deliver ILUC-free raw material to the biorefinery is estimated, practical tests on biooil production from dewatered digestate from participating biogas plants are carried out and the system is evaluated through cost calculations and case descriptions at a real biogas plant. The project contributes to the goal of fossil-free agriculture by producing biofuels from manure and residual streams for both agriculture's own consumption and for the needs of society.
Råvarupotentialen inom svenskt jordbruk behöver utnyttjas mer effektivt för att producera hållbara biodrivmedel och öka försörjningstryggheten samt nå målen om minskade utsläpp från transportsektorn till 2030. Projektets syfte är att undersöka hur gårdar kan anpassas och samarbeta för att kunna leverera ILUC-fria biomassor till bioraffinaderier utan negativa effekter på markens långsiktiga bördighet och samtidigt öka självförsörjningsgraden för energi, växtnäring och foder I det föreslagna projektet uppskattas jordbrukets potential att leverera ILUC-fri råvara till bioraffinaderiet, praktiska tester på biooljaproduktion från avvattnad rötrest från medverkande biogasanläggningar genomförs och systemet utvärderas genom kostnadsberäkningar och case-beskrivningar på en verklig biogasanläggning. Projektet bidrar till målet med ett fossilfritt lantbruk genom att producera biodrivmedel från gödsel och restströmmar till såväl lantbrukets egen förbrukning som till samhällets behov.

Poultry have a strong motivation for foraging and spend most of the day pecking and searching for food. In commercial conditions, the birds are fed a pellet diet, which is consumed very quickly. Consequently, hens spend a large part of the day engaging in abnormal non-food related pecking …

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 …

Just going to the bathroom is contributing to algae blooms and climate change. Sweden alone releases roughly 15400 tonnes of N and 240 tonnes of P into lakes, rivers and seas, through municipal wastewater (including after treatment). Urine contains 80% of the plant nutrients found in wastewater and …
