Ett evolutionärt perspektiv bör beaktas för att kunna garantera långsiktig pollinering av grödor. Det är slutsatsen i en artikel publicerad av BECC- och CEC-anknutna forskare vid Lunds universitet. Forskarna tar avstamp i senare tids rön om att evolutionära processer, som svar på landskapsförändringar, sker fortare än man tidigare trott. I artikeln presenteras en modell som kan hjälpa oss att förs

Bioenergy plays a vital role in the transition to a fossil-free society. However, the "unused" agricultural land, so-called marginal land, deemed suitable for bioenergy cultivation in southern Sweden is practically nonexistent, according to a new study from Lund University. Much of the land is already in use, for example, for horse grazing. "Our study shows that the potential for bioenergy product
