  1. 1. Assessing water balance and yields in Malawian cropping systems : maize soybean and maize Gliricidia systems resilience against climate change

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Författare :Danila Valeriano; [2024]
    Nyckelord :crop modelling; APSIM; Malawi; maize; soybean; Gliricidia; agroforestry; legume intercropping; climate predictions; climate adaptation; SDSM;

    Sammanfattning : In Malawi, maize monocultures are increasingly susceptible to extreme weather patterns, causing considerable yield reduction and heightened food insecurity for smallholder farmers dependent on rainfed subsistence agriculture. Diversifying cropping systems is crucial for ensuring yield resilience. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Francesco Saretto; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Barley; Rainfed; Climate Change; AquaCrop; AquaCrop-OSPy; Mediterranean; Climate Change Adaptation; Crop Modeling; Agriculture; Irrigation;

    Sammanfattning : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The potential to use rhizobacteria within agricultural innovations instead of chemical inputs : taking quality and quantity of the crop into consideration

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Författare :Ida Quisth; Isabella Ulfsparre; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Biocontrol; Biofertilizer; Biopesticide; Biostimulant; Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria; PGPR; Quality; Rhizosphere Microbiome; Yield;

    Sammanfattning : Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are soil bacteria that occur naturally, colonize the roots of plants and can promote plant growth. PGPR isolated and used as inoculum to seed or plants is mostly marketed as a growth stimulant because it facilitates registration and reduces costs, even though PGPR may also serve as biocontrol products.

  4. 4. Sustainable use of calcium nitrate fertilizer under variable precipitation, soil properties and crop management

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Författare :Liliana Marcela Daza Gomez; [2023]
    Nyckelord :nitrogen.; calcium nitrate; ammonium-based fertilizers; urea; nitrate leaching; nitrous oxide emissions; crop yield;

    Sammanfattning : Application of nitrogen fertilizers in agriculture contributes substantially to global greenhouse gas emissions and nitrogen leaching. Accordingly, there is a need to increase knowledge about sustainable farming practices to reduce nitrogen losses to the environment without curtailing crop harvest. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Biogasproduktion vid samrötning av substrat tillgängliga vid lantbruk : Småskalig rötning vid Lillerudsgymnasiet

    Master-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Författare :Cecilia Svensson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Biogas; agriculture;

    Sammanfattning : The world is currently heavily dependent on fossil sources and the use of fossil fuels leads to increased global warming. One of the solutions to this environmental problems is biogas. LÄS MER
