1. Quality of Spent Mushroom Compost Amended with Organic Material- Effect on Nutrient Content and Plant Growth
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)Sammanfattning : Peat, as a non-renewable growing media, poses environmental concerns due to extraction and decomposition processes, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions. Alternatives growing media with potential to replace or reduce the use of peat are of great need. LÄS MER
2. Biochar and hemp as peat substitutes in organic growing media : effects on nutrient availability and nutrient uptake
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)Sammanfattning : This study aimed at evaluating the suitability of biochar and hemp as partial or complete replacement of peat in horticultural growing media, with specific emphasis on the effects on nutrient availability and plant nutrient uptake. The study was motivated by the environmental concerns surrounding the use of peat, along with a desire to explore possible uses for biochar and a crop residue from hemp cultivation. LÄS MER
3. Nutrient dynamics in pak choi cultivation fertilized with biogas digestate : effects of non-nutrient digestate elements and amendment with mineral nutrients
Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion in biogas plants produces renewable energy and a residue which is rich in plant nutrients. This residue is called digestate. Today, these digestates are mostly spread directly onto fields as manure. LÄS MER
