Also the bike parking!

Hello, my name is Benedikt Haug, and I am a researcher at the #PlantBreeding group of #WageningenUniversity. I will post here regularly on my work in breeding for biodiverse and resilient cropping systems, such as mixed cropping, strip cropping, agroforestry and agrivoltaics.

My main interests are in the role of the #PlantGenotype and its #Holobiont in...

New research into continuing decline of lobsters and mussels - DutchNews.nl

Wageningen University is starting a new four-year investigation into the decline of lobsters and mussels in the Oosterschelde estuary south of Rotterdam. An earlier investigation to see if the lobster population is being affected by steel slag, a byproduct of steel manufacturing used to strengthen coastal defence works, was inconclusive. Lobsters from the Oosterschelde which had been exposed to steel slag did not show any significant differences compared to lobsters living in the Grevelingenmeer lake where no steel slag has...

Scientists concerned about biodiversity as Cabinet refuses to present nature plan

Scientists from Wageningen University & Research are concerned that the government is not presenting a draft nature plan ahead of a summit on biodiversity, they wrote on Sunday on the nature platform Nature Today.According to the six scientists, the Dutch nature plan was drawn up by policymakers, knowledge institutions, companies, and nature and environmental organizations. It was agreed at the last biodiversity summit in Montreal in 2022 that the countries would do this. The idea is that the action plans should help to better protect and restore nature and biodiversity.

Scientists say we have enough evidence to agree global action on microplastics

Science has provided more than sufficient evidence to inform a collective and global approach to tackle the continued spread of plastic pollution, according to a new report. Writing in the journal Science, an international group of experts say the need for worldwide action to tackle all forms of plastic and microplastic debris has never been more pressing.
