New plant-based method for cheese-making enzyme
A research team from SLU, Linnaeus University and Örebro University has successfully produced a traditional cheese-making enzyme in plants. The results open new possibilities for sustainable dairy production. -
Innovation across borders for sustainable food systems
On 25 August, a Japanese delegation visited Malmö, joined by companies and startups, all looking to spark new collaborations between Sweden and Japan. -
Root sampling for resilient nordic potatoes
SustainPotato is developing resilient Nordic potato varieties by studying how genetics and microbiomes affect resistance to diseases like late blight. Now, the first round of root sampling are complete. -
Future plant breeders take root at SLU
Students and researchers from the BREEDTECH program visited SLU Alnarp to explore cutting-edge plant breeding tools and bring practical innovations back to their local agricultural systems.

ADVALUE
Advancing Sustainable Agricultural Value Chains through Strengthening Transdisciplinary Skills and Cooperation in East African Doctoral Education (ADVALUE) addresses the need for qualified doctorates and future academic professionals in agricultural sciences. -
inSALSA
Increasing Sustainability of Agribiologicals by Living labs in sub-Saharan Africa (inSALSA) aims to enhance the use of agricultural biologicals as alternatives to hazardous agrochemicals through living labs in Sub-Saharan Africa. -
AgBio4SSA
AgBio4SSA explores agricultural biologicals as alternatives to hazardous agrochemicals through living labs in Sub-Saharan Africa. -
Field cress - a new oilseed crop for Nordic conditions
We are developing a new, bio-based value chain for renewable fuels and protein in Sweden, where field cress– a novel oilseed crop – takes center stage.
Division of Plant Breeding
Our division explores crop biodiversity and trait inheritance, aiding the domestication and genetic enhancement of new crops with increased yield, resistance, and produce quality.
Division of Plant Biotechnology
Our division unravels the regulatory networks of storage compounds in plants and then uses this knowledge for creating new crops by means of modern gene-technology methods.
Division of Plant Product Quality
Our division identifies how different crops, cultivars, cultivation methods, and postharvest handling affect and regulate end-product quality—and how this quality can be increased.
SLU Food Lab
The SLU Food Lab is an arena side-by-side with teaching and research, contributing to increased knowledge about the interaction between raw materials, process, and product.
The Plant Protein Factory
At The Plant Protein Factory researchers with different skills are working together to develop the quality proteins of the future - from plant breeding to production and consumption.
