Structure liming on clayey soils (>15% clay) is one of the prioritized measures for mitigation of phosphorous losses to surrounding water. This project increases the knowledge about the effect of structure liming on phosphorous leaching losses on short and long term by investigating the timing and quantity of lime application, as well as the long-term leaching losses and their annual variation. Structure liming can favor both the environment and the productivity and profitability of agriculture when the soil structure improves and the risk of losses of phosphorous from the field decreases. The project uses an already on-going field experiment on separately tile-drained plots were measurements will continue and new plots brought into use.
Strukturkalkning av lerjordar (>15% ler) är en av de prioriterade åtgärderna mot fosforförluster i Vattendirektivets åtgärdsprogram. Projektet ökar kunskapen om strukturkalkens effekter genom att undersöka tidpunktens, givans och årsmånens betydelse för effekter på kort och längre sikt. Strukturkalkning är dessutom en åtgärd som kan främja både miljön och lantbrukets lönsamhet. Produktionsförutsättningarna gynnas med bättre markstruktur och långsiktig hållbarhet samtidigt som strukturkalken minskar risken för att fosfor lämnar fältet. Projektet har två delar, dels att undersöka hur tidpunkten och förhållandena vid utförandet påverkar strukturkalkningens effekter och dels att undersöka de långsiktiga effekterna av strukturkalkning inklusive hur givans storlek påverkar fosforutlakningen. Projektet använder ett redan befintligt försök med separat dränerade parceller där mätningar från tidigare försök förlängs och nya parceller tas i bruk.

The project aims to study the long-term effect of structure liming, and to test if minimum tillage can prolong the duration of this effect. The hypothesis is that structure liming effects diminish over time, but by minimizing soil tillage we can prolong this effect. Studies will be performed in six …

Soil organic carbon is an important factor for soil health and productivity. Soil carbon sequestration (SCS) also plays a crucial role in meeting the climate goals. For that purpose, catch- and cover crops are identified as a cost-effective management practice that combines SCS with other ecosystem …
