Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet
Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences

SLU is to a large extent a research university; two thirds of the budget are allocated to research. When it comes to wildlife, soil use, climate issues, bioenergy, landscape architecture, husbandry, forestry, gardening, agriculture or aquaculture, SLU has the expertise. We also monitor and assess the environment.

The Division of Communication distributes some 200 press releases annually. SLU cooperates with expertanswer, a website run by The Swedish Research Council, where journalists and Members of Parliament can submit queries to universities and colleges and get help finding researchers.

You can subscribe to our press releases. Either by ordering them by e-mail at press@slu.se or as an RSS feed in your browser. If you subscribe by e-mail, please state which areas you are interested in.

Feel free to contact one of our Press Officers in Uppsala, the Communications Officer at one of our main campuses or our Science editors. We are happy to help!
