New @NComms paper from @plant_soil 🥳
Soil carbon's stability under future climate change is uncertain. We challenge current understanding demonstrating how plant inputs interact with soil microbes and soil minerals to determine soil carbon stability nature.com/articles/s4146…

How vulnerable is tropical soil carbon to warming?
A huge question investigated through this cool PhD opportunity. Great supervisory team, panama field studies, learning state-of-the-art lab methods - what's not to like :)

Is that the Miscanthus that we planted in Spring 2023 - its huge already 🌱

Great to welcome staff from Department for Energy Security and Net Zero to our hub site in Aberystwyth and show them how well the biomass crops are doing.

Exciting news from #IBERS, #Aberystwyth! 📣 (@ibers_aber)
Over the past few months, we've successfully used #Miscanthus as livestock bedding. Cattle are happy, clean, and it's a great alternative to straw. Visit us @royalwelshshow to learn more!

Yesterday at @royalwelshshow, young farmers Oliver, Harry, and Elliott had a blast with the #Cropper game at the Western Bioenergy stand! They scored awesome @BiomassConnect and Envirocrops goodies! 🎉
Are you at the show today or tomorrow? Swing by and play #Cropper!

It's been a pleasure Dr Cvetkovic-Jones 😊 We're going to miss you too and wish you all the best in your new job 🥰👨🎓

We need all the low carbon energy we can afford and with bioenergy the right choices are not always obvious or intuitive. If you have an appetite for understanding complexity and clearly communicating with policy makers to deliver change take a look at this post.

@niels_corfield @UK_CEH @SRUC @energygovuk Slurry applied at 50 tonnes per hectare
Biochar added to the slurry at 1%.
So 0.5 tonnes per hectare biochar. More info here. Full results published next year after 2nd annual application and more soil sampling

@UK_CEH @SRUC @energygovuk @Jen1Whitaker Thanks for sharing
Great work
May we ask the rates for slurry and biochar?

NEWS: Promising results from #biochar field trials show that a low-dose application to grassland has benefits for crop productivity & nutrient retention

Well done to @Zoe_M_Harris who presented the exciting work taking place in the Taeda Tech Project at #EUBCE2024
English
Our monitoring of these experimental plots has shown that in the first year combining low-dose biochar and slurry application has benefits for N retention and grass yield compared to slurry alone, so we're keen to see how our 2nd application in spring 2024 builds on this
