Risk mitigation measures for anticoagulant rodenticides (Project)

The aim of this project is to develop a set of recommendations on the most suitable RMMs for anticoagulant rodenticides. This goal is based on recommendations that contribute to the responsible and sustainable use of anticoagulants rodenticides, reducing their risks to human health, animal health and the environment.

Collaborative project: Sphagnum farming on floating vegetation for a sustainable peat substitute in commercial horticulture (Project)

Optimal growth of Sphagnum requires continuously high water levels, which is one of the biggest challenges for Sphagnum cultivation on peat soil. Plant growth slows down when water levels are either too low or too high. Thus the cultivation of Sphagnum on floating rafts could be potentially beneficial because fluctuations in the water level can be avoided. Suitable rafts were developed and tested...
