Personal profile

Profile

My research is mainly covering two topics:

Agricultural systems, i.e. analysis and modeling of climate impact and environmental consequences of scenarios for the use of the agricultural area, numbers of livestock, and the technologies that can be associated with an agricultural system such as pyrolysis, biogas and biorefining. 

Field trials, i.e., examine the environmental and climate effects of measures such as catch crops and fallow. In addition, examine nitrate leaching from crop cultivation, e.g., silage maize.

Commissioned

In the policy advisory, I have been involved in tasks about the climate and environmental consequences of an increased area with leguminous plants/protein crops in Denmark, biochar and the climate footprint from rapeseed cultivation.

Teaching

I teach in the course Environmental assessment at farm level, where I am responsible for the subject that deals with nitrogen balances at farm level.
I also teach in crops and crop rotations in the course that introduces agriculture to the students, at Plant and Food Science.
