A recent published study (Rytter et al., 2011) points to the large poplar biomass production in short time, but knowledge of management practices lacks for Nordic conditions. Individual landowners have little help or guidance in selecting the optimal time for harvesting or planting density in establishment of new plantations. This project is therefor divided into two substudies: I) study the growth of twelve poplar stands (7 to 23 years old) which provides guidance on the optimal rotation period
II ) study the growth dynamics under three diffent planting densities in two research trials, established spring 2016. Results from the two studies aims to articulate best possible management systems for optimizing the production and financial outcome.Both studies will be conducted on clone OP42 (P. maximowiczii x P. trichocarpa) on plantations established on farmland in southern and central Sweden. The stands from the two studies will be revised annually during the project.
I en nyligen publicerad studie ( Rytter et al ., 2011 ) visar på hög produktion av biomassa från poppelplanteringar på kort tid, men kunskap om skötsel saknas för nordiska förhållanden . Enskilda markägare har idag lite hjälp och vägledning vid val av optimal tid för skörd eller planteringsförband vid etablering av planteringar . Projektet består av två delstudier
I) studie av tillväxten från tolv poppel bestånd (7 till 23 år) vilken ger vägledning av optimala omloppstid
II ) studera tillväxtdynamiken för tre olika planteringsförband i två fältförsök, etablerade våren 2016.
Resultat från de två studierna syftar till att formulera bästa möjliga skötselsystem för att optimera produktion- och ekonomiskt utfall. Båda studierna kommer att genomföras i planteringar med klon OP42 ( P. maximowiczii x P. trichocarpa ) på jordbruksmark i södra och mellersta Sverige. Bestånden från de båda studierna kommer att revideras årligen under projektet.

The purpose of this project is to define the amount of slaked lime needed for a given clay soil. We hypothesise that the amount of slaked lime needed for minimal phophorus loss is dependent on the clay content of the soil. The study will be conducted in a field with a drainage system and measuring …

Increased production and export of products with high added values, e.g. long-ripened hard cheeses, are considered important steps for a positive development of the Swedish dairy sector. Increased investment in Swedish premium cheese will, however, require increased volumes of high quality raw milk …

Wheat bran is the largest by-product of wheat flour production with approximately 300,000 tonnes in Sweden. Bran is mainly used in animal feed, as human digestion is not fully able to absorb it. Wheat bran contains valuable biomolecules, such as dietary fiber (arabinoxylans, AX) and phenolic …

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 …

Using split fertilization of nitrogen (N) in wheat production is today well-established to increase protein content and adjust fertilization. However, deep knowledge and understanding of N uptake and remobilization during late stages of crop development are missing. Moreover, while split …
