Denmark is a pioneer in providing knowledge on the possibilities of reducing agricultural climate gas emissions. A workshop followed by an international conference is supposed to shed light on Danish competences as well as create new possibilities for the further development of climate technologies in agriculture.

Using vertical solar-cell installations, researchers from Aarhus University will harvest both energy and crops from the same agricultural area. The plan is to produce energy when it is most needed, while at the same time leaving space for the farmer to work in the field.

A low-inflation pressure tyre on the farmer’s tractor is more important than the construction of the tyre itself when it comes to reducing soil stress in cultivated fields. Researchers from Aarhus University, among others, have studied how tyres have developed over time and measured how much stress the soil is exposed to when the farmer chooses…

During his studies, Yannik investigated land suitability across Denmark using terron methodology. Terrons are created by combining machine learning with soil, climate, and landscape variables. Yannik utilized two different methods (i.e. point-based and raster-based) for generating terrons and validated the resulting maps using data on agriculture…
