AGRO Soil Carbon Research Day

There is a considerable interest from farmers, society, and researchers in the role of soil carbon for soil functions and for climate change mitigation. At AGRO, there is also an increasing number of research projects on soil carbon, or involving aspects related to soil carbon.

AGRO Foulum, Auditorium

At AGRO, we are often not well informed about the entire range of research activities within the department when it comes to potential collaboration opportunities. We also have considerable policy support tasks related to soil carbon, and we need to ensure that our policy support is well aligned with our research.

Therefore, we organize an AGRO Soil Carbon Research Day with presentations of ongoing activities at AGRO. We encourage all researchers (juniors and seniors) to put forward titles for short 5-minute presentations (pitch talks) of their research and research ideas. This is an event for initiating collaboration among researchers and to get inspired for future research on soil carbon.

If you would like to attend, please sign up via the link below. If you would like to give a 5-minute PITCH TALK, please indicate with title when you sign up.
