Short summary
The project include a landscape-scale experiment to investigate how animals can be integrated into farming systems for the best possible benefit.
This project focuses on the reintegration of crop production and grazing animals in the same agricultural landscape and is unique in its kind as it includes both animals and crop production in the same landscape experiment.
The results will contribute to the development of sustainable production of crops, milk and meat in a way that promotes both biodiversity, soil fertility, an attractive environment for people and a resilient agricultural system.
The project is connected to the knowledge center SustAinimal and in run in collaboration with RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden).
