1. 36. The potential nitrous oxide emissions in a permanent grassland chronosequence

   Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

   Författare :Sandra Lillsjö Kronblad; [2023]
   Nyckelord :nitrous oxide emission; permanent grasslands; denitrification; nitrous; reen house gas; agriculture;

   Sammanfattning : As a part of a larger project (Belowground biodiversity of grasslands – conservation needs and potential to promote sustainable agriculture), this study aims to investigate potential nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and microbial gene abundances needed for the production (nirS and nirK) and reduction (nosZI and nosZII) of nitrous oxide in soil of permanent grasslands of various age. Thegrasslands have at different times been converted to permanent grasslands and are of interest because of the possibility to shed more light about the passage of time’s affects on the soil microbialcommunities and their activity.

3. 37. Pepita de oro: How AlVelAl is building a regional regenerative agriculture transformation through social innovations

   Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Stockholm Resilience Centre

   Författare :Elissa Dickson; [2023]
   Nyckelord :regenerative agriculture; Spain; sustainability transformation; social innovation; adaptive capacity; institutions; drylands;

   Sammanfattning : Regenerative Agriculture (RA) is increasingly promoted as a sustainable agri-food solution. Agronomic studies find that RA practices (e.g. cover crops, reduced tillage, crop rotation, and agroforestry) can regulate soil moisture, sequester atmospheric carbon, enhance biodiversity, and reduce the impacts of droughts and floods.

4. 38. Traditional Knowledge and Practices for Resilience to Climate Change in Nepal’s Mid-Hills: Perspectives from Darma and Madi Rural Municipalities

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Författare :Dina-Josepha Rodehorst; Tabitha Black-Lock; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Climate change; traditional knowledge; Indigenous knowledge; Nepal; resilience; agriculture; Magar; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : With climate change impacting countries around the world, rural communities in Nepal are among those most affected. As acknowledged by global climate discourses, traditional knowledge plays a vital role in understanding and adapting to climate change. LÄS MER

5. 39. From wheat to lawns : urban expansion to agricultural lands in Finland from 2000 to 2018 and its implications to food security

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Antti Olof Ilari Säkkinen; [2023]
   Nyckelord :agriculture; food security; GIS; Sustainable Development; urban expansion;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis evaluates the extent of urban expansion on agricultural lands in Finland, its effects on the national agricultural output and the implications to national food security and sheds some light to the reasons of why agricultural land is converted to urban land in Finland. This complex issue was approached through mixed research methods. LÄS MER

7. 40. Soil health on organic farms : linking organic farmer practices to soil health and yield

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Författare :Lina Johansson; [2023]
   Nyckelord :organic farming; bulk density; management;

   Sammanfattning : Soil health is a part of the sustainable agriculture which the EU is trying to develop. Organic farming can be one way of working towards more healthy soils. The term soil health can be divided into biological, chemical, and physical aspects of the soil that are necessary to sustain the plants grown. LÄS MER
