   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

3. 2. Reimagining agriculture with perennial crops : a study on the diffusion of innovation and soil ecosystem services in the new perennial grain Kernza

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

   Författare :Robin Meijer; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Intermediate Wheatgrass; Kernza; Thinopyrum Intermedium; perennial grain; polyculture; wheat; annual; microbial biomass; soil microbial community structure; PLFA; NLFA; sustainability; agroecology; ecological intensification; innovation;

   Sammanfattning : Perennial crops have been identified as a pathway to implement ecological intensification, which in extent could make agriculture more socio-economically and ecologically sustainable. This is a master thesis in Agroecology – a growing scientific discipline that aims to investigate problems in the food system using a holistic and transdisciplinary approach, incorporating and integrating both natural and social sciences to transform the food system.
