In late April and Early May 2022 two field trials were set up as part of the continuing Miscomar+ project. Building on knowledge acquired in 2021, these experiments are testing the effects of miscanthus mulch and plastic mulch on the establishment of miscanthus. Furthermore, the effect of fertilizer in combination with miscanthus mulch will be investigated to see if this increases establishment success.
It's September, the growing season is coming to an end and we are currently three months after the experiment establishment. . As a part of the experimental work, we did the assessment of the plantation establishment success – counting the number of survived plants, measure of plant height and the number of shoots.
MISCOMAR+ project will be presented on FACCE SURPLUS Status Seminar of Projects of the 2nd and 3rd Call. The End-Term Meeting of FACCE SURPLUS 2nd call, the mid-term meeting of projects of FACCE SURPLUS, 3rd call and a valorisation workshop will be held from Tuesday, 28 till Wednesday, 29 September 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the meeting will be held on-line.
From June 14 to July 9, 2021 scientists from Research and Innovation Centre Pro-Akademia completed a month-long miscanthus gasification campaign as part of the MISCOMAR + project. The research was conducted at the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands.
At the project test site in Bytom, contaminated with heavy metals, a field experiment was set up to test the impact of various agrotechnical treatments on the growth and acclimatization of miscanthus genotypes.
Please read on! Scientific publications from 2017-2019 present the results of the MISCOMAR project.
