  1. 1. An investigation of pea and cereal varieties for organic intercropping in Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Agnes Elise Matilda Wilson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Intercropping; agroecology; organic; peas; cereals; heritage grains;

    Sammanfattning : Organic farming, intercropping and the conservation of landraces are agroecological methods of transitioning to a more sustainable and resilient agricultural system, however there is a lack of data on varieties suitable for organic intercropping. Therefore, two spatially parallel field trials were conducted with 11 pea varieties intercropped with oat, and 38 varieties of cereals (wheat, oat, and barley), in sole crops. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Effective soil organic carbon monitoring in perennial agriculture systems - Sampling protocol development and evaluation

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Maja Holm; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Physical geography; ecosystem science; soil organic carbon; soil sampling; perennial crops; carbon sequestration; carbon farming; Kernza™; soil organic carbon stock; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Perennial agriculture systems are gaining ground as a more sustainable alternative to conventional annual agriculture, partly for their potential to increase the soil organic carbon (SOC) content. Carbon farming is another hot topic for SOC sequestration, as it creates economic incentives for farmers. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Groundwater Modelling in southeast Cambodia - Facing irrigation and groundwater level changes during a pandemic

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Svea Bertolatus; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Cambodia; GMS Modflow; Groundwater modelling; irrigation; Mekong; Prey Veng; Svay Rieng; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In the Mekong region, sustainable water resource management is a significant challenge for all countries involved. In Cambodia, where rice production is crucial for household food security and export, groundwater is increasingly used for irrigation during the dry season, leading to higher rice yields. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Alternativa urbana odlingsmetodernas potential för självförsörjning i Sverige

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Författare :Jessica Andersson; Carl Magnusson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Aeroponic; aquaponic; agriculture; farming; hydroponic; GMO; self-sufficiency; sustainability goals; urban;

    Sammanfattning : During the COVID pandemic of 2019, Sweden saw a huge increase in food prices, as many of the country's grocery chains import a large amount of all foods. This research is motivated by the Swedish Parliament's motion "Self-Sufficiency of Food in Sweden" and the need for innovative solutions to enhance Sweden's food supply. LÄS MER
