Insufficient crop protection is an increasingly limiting factor for crop production. Damage by slugs and cabbage stem flea beetles in winter oilseed rape are timely examples of increasing crop protection problems in Sweden. We will test whether companion cropping winter oilseed rape with frost sensitive legumes can reduce slug and flea beetle damage. We will further test how slugs can be suppressed and their natural enemies (carabid beetles) enhanced in winter oilseed rape established with no- or low-till methods. The long term population development of cabbage stem flea beetles, its drivers and management options will be analyzed using an already digitized extensive database (1969-2018, 2889 winter oilseed rape fields). With a combination of field observations and experiments, laboratory studies, and analyses of extant data, our overall aim is to promote crop protection when establishing winter oilseed rape by developing effective integrated pest management options.
Otillräckligt växtskydd är en allt viktigare faktor som begränsar produktionen i lantbruket. Skador av sniglar och rapsjordloppor i höstraps är viktiga exempel på ökande växtskyddsproblem i Sverige. Vi kommer undersöka om samodling av höstraps med frostkänsliga baljväxter kan minska skadorna av sniglar och rapsjordloppor. Vi kommer även att utvärdera hur etablering av höstraps med reducerad bearbetning eller direktsådd kan utformas så sniglarna kontrolleras och deras naturliga fiender (jordlöpare) gynnas. Vad som styr rapsjordloppornas populationsutveckling över tid och hur de påverkas av odlingsfaktorer och klimat kommer undersökas med en sedan tidigare digitaliserad omfattande databas (1969-2018, 2889 höstrapsfält). Genom en kombination av observationer och experiment i fält, laboratoriestudier samt analyser av befintlig data, är vår övergripande målsättning att utveckla effektiva motåtgärder mot sniglar och rapsjordloppor som bidrar till säkrare etablering av höstraps i Sverige.

In modern large-scale pig production, first-rate hygienic conditions are necessary to avoid outbreaks of diseases and promote and maintain a good biosecurity, However, evaluation of pen hygiene is highly subjective. The project aims to adapt and evaluate a new method for the standardised measure of …

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 …

Insulin dysregulation and hyperinsulinemia is a horse welfare problem that also increase the incidence of the severely painful condition laminitis in horses. Today, no pharmacological treatment is available but recent weak evidence suggest that Sodium-glucose cotransporters (SGLT) inhibitors (e.g. …

It is generally accepted that muscle enzyme activity (CK and AST) levels in plasma may increase in Standardbreds and Thoroughbreds after exercise and racing, indicating muscle damage. However, in one recent study on healthy Standardbred trotters fed a forage only diet muscle enzyme activity levels …
