  1. A Danish-Indian collaboration network for developing a Green Irrigation technology using salt water

    Mathias Neumann Andersen , Sven Gjedde Sommer , Knud Villy Christensen & Raveendra H. Patil

    The aim of the GreenIrri network is to define and initiate joint research and
    development projects, which will increase the biomass base for a green
    industry transition from being fossil to biobased, renewable, and integrated in
    the circular economy. Jointly the network will develop a water treatment
    technology using the hydrophobic membranes to irrigate crops with
    treated salt water. The mission is to increase the potential for extracting
    biomass, by breaking the current barrier for global crop production
    constituted by limited resources of freshwater for irrigation.Description

  2. Extending the Danish Normative Values for Animal Manure to include carbon to model the emission of green house gasses from farm animals, stables and storage

Adamsen , Frederik Rask Dalby , Michael Jørgen Hansen , Peter Kai , Sasha D. Hafner , Henrik Bjarne Møller , Ole-Kenneth Nielsen , Mette Hjorth Mikkelsen , Rikke Albrektsen & Steen Gyldenkærne

    The aim is to make a model, which on commercial dairy and pig farms can estimate the turnover of carbon and the emissions of green house gasses. It is the goal to estimate these emissions from amount and composition of feed, the production of each category of animals, and the emissions from stable and storage.
    The project is funded by the Danish Agricultural Agency.Description
