Rising from the ashes – exploring seedling development utilizing L-arginine and P-rich ashes as fertilizers

11 May, 2026/in Current Strategic Projects, Project/by Irina Iakovleva

Participants: Henrik Böhlenius (SLU, P2), Nils Skoglund (UmU, P7)

Duration: 2026-2027

This project aims to develop a novel fertilizer material where phosphorus-rich ash is combined with L-arginine as an organic nitrogen source. By investigating how the material influences nutrient availability and seedling development in poplar and aspen, the researchers seek to support future biomass production systems.

The work combines material development, greenhouse studies and field experiments to explore new approaches for nutrient recycling and ash-based fertilization. The project may contribute to more resource-efficient biomass production and circular fertilization strategies for future biorefineries.

Call: Annual 2026
