Swedish farmers, advisors, authorities and researchers are working together towards the same goal of Zero Eutrophication by reducing losses of nutrients and sediment from agricultural land to streams, lakes and the Baltic Sea. The Focus on Phosphorus project was carried out to test measures of reducing phosphorus losses from agriculture. Farmers participated voluntarily. However, there has been no financial support for a follow-up programme to evaluate the long-term effects on water quality. This project aims to be the first comprehensive evaluation in Sweden of the effectiveness of the chain of phosphorus and sediment mitigation measures at reach and catchment scale. We will use hourly sampling and modelling to show the effect of measures in the Focus on Phosphorus catchment. Through this we aim to increase the awareness and use of the mitigation measures by Swedish farmers and move a step closer towards environmentally friendly Swedish agriculture in the long-term.
Svenska lantbrukare, myndigheter och forskare arbetar tillsammans mot samma mål av Ingen Övergödning genom att minska förlusterna av näringsämnen och sediment från jordbruksmark till vattendrag, sjöar och Östersjön. Fokus på Fosfor-projektet genomfördes för att testa åtgärder för att minska fosforförluster från jordbruket. Bönder deltog frivilligt. Däremot har det inte funnits någon ekonomiskt stöd till ett uppföljningsprogram för att utvärdera de långsiktiga effekterna på vattenkvaliteten. Projektet syftar till att vara den första omfattande utvärderingen i Sverige av effektiviteten i kedjan av fosfor- och sedimentbegränsande åtgärder vid vattendrag och i avrinningsområden. Vi kommer att använda provtagning varje timme och modellering för att visa effekten av åtgärderna i Fokus på Fosfors upptagningsområde. Genom detta vill vi öka medvetenheten och användningen av riskreducerande åtgärder av svenska bönder och flytta ett steg närmare miljövänligt svenskt jordbruk på lång sikt.

We are facing a protein shift in which a portion of the animal based protein in our diet needs to be replaced by plant proteins to reduce the climate impact from the food sector. Many agricultural by-streams contain high value proteins not used to their full potential. We aim to recover proteins …

Disease and production disturbances in a herd are often silent, and may cause major losses if they remain undetected. Continuous analysis and monitoring of data already recorded at the farm level can improve profitability. This project will develop methods for monitoring trends in production and …

The purpose of the project is to analyse stable cultures in cyberspace in Sweden and Norway. In recent years, questions about the welfare of horses have been debated in social media and norms for horse-keeping are created on Internet. In this project, these norms are conceptualised as stable …

Correct assessment of hind limb lameness is a challenge, also for most experienced vets. This causes incorrect diagnoses and faulty treatment interventions which lead to unnecessary suffering for the horses and an unnecessary financial burden for owners and insurance companies. The aim of this …

Icelandic horses are increasingly popular in Sweden and Norway. Their strength lies in their unique gaits, however, in lame horses this trait becomes a weakness. Evaluating not only lameness but also the leg of origin for lameness in any gait other than trot is exceptionally challenging. Today, we …
