Collaborations

Page reviewed:  16/06/2025

We collaborate with the agricultural and forestry sectors, extension services, and authorities to identify and address key issues, develop research projects, and communicate results. We also handle questions from schools and the public about soil science and sustainable soil management.

Our external collaboration specialists

Helena Aronsson, external collaboration specialist in soil and environment

Good nutrient management on a farm is the key for efficient production with low negative environmental impact.

Mats Söderström, external collaboration specialist in precision agriculture

In precision agriculture you use satellite positioning, sensors, digital soil mapping, satellite images, and geographical information systems to adapt cultivation measures to the needs of every part of the field.

Ingrid Wesström, external collaboration specialist in water management in the agricultural landscape

As an external collaborator I want to contribute to a future viable agriculture based on sustainable land and water use.

Environmental monitoring

In our work with environmental monitoring we assesse the state of the environment in Sweden on a mission from the government. We coordinate two programs from the Department. Read more about them below.

  • Climate programme - We support efforts to achieve the Reduced Climate Impact environmental objective. In the near term priority is being given to Sweden's international climate reporting in the land-use, land-use change and forestry sectors. 
  • Agricultural landscape programme - We monitor the agricultural landscape and contribute to an overall picture of the environmental quality in the agricultural landscape.
