Harnessing trait-based plant combinations to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions under current and future climatic conditions
In this NWO funded project we investigate how we can mitigate greenhouse gass emissions from grassland exposed to extreme weather events through combining grassland plant species based on their functional traits. https://www.vcard.wur.nl/Views/Profile/View.aspx?id=36345

Clever Cover Cropping
Clever Cover Cropping is a NWO Green funded project in which we aim to find synergistic mixtures of cover crops for sustainable soils, in collaboration with CSA (WUR) and NIOO. In our part we mainly focus on optimising N-availability in soil whils minimizing N losses through leaching.
