We have 11 Agricultural Sciences (soil) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Carbon sequestration from Agricultural soils from different Land-uses, Managements and Soil types (CALMS)
Agriculture dominates the Irish landscape, with ~60% of the total land area devoted to grass-based agriculture for beef and dairy production. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Impact of the microbial biodiversity and micro-ecological processes on the transmission and persistency of diseases in dairy farms: a multidisciplinary, adaptive research approach
Soil provides the basic structure for the development of the ecosystem where humans and animals live. Soil microbiota, including different pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms, are responsible for the health and maintenance of the ecosystem, creating the greatest biodiversity in the world. Read more
Master of Science by Research scholarship on the development of rapid, low-cost tools to quantify soil organic carbon
The University of St Andrews is pleased to offer a scholarship funded by the Royal and Ancient Foundation to support an exceptional student undertaking research in the following project. Read more
Developing a soil health index using advanced remote and proximal sensing methods in a unique and complex salt-affected environment to test and refine AI technologies, with the potential for significant agricultural, environmental, and socio-economic benefits
We are pleased to announce an opening a full-time PhD position for six (6) years at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Agriculture. Read more
OMV-I: Investigating spatio-temporal dynamics of Oat Mosaic Virus (OMV) in Irish tillage systems
Oats is an essential cereal crop for the Irish tillage sector, providing an important break in rotations while delivering an important economic return into an expanding marketplace. Read more
Gene editing to improve salt tolerance in legumes - PhD
Soil salinization, occurring either naturally (through rainfall salt deposition or weathering of parent rock material) or as a result of anthropogenic activity (poor irrigation and land management practices, rising sea levels) poses a global challenge for crop production and is expected to intensify with projected climate change scenarios. Read more
Modelling and measuring agricultural management on peat soils to enhance removals and sequestration of carbon (MAPSERS-C)
Ireland and New Zealand aim to at least halve greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030 and reach net zero carbon by 2050. A significant contribution common to both countries national GHG estimates comes from grassland over drained organic (peat) soils with upper estimates of approximately 9Mt CO. Read more
Farm slurry into green fertiliser, diesel, and hydrogen
The Industry and Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri) draws on talents, expertise and facilities across Sheffield Hallam University. Read more
Functional Sugar-derived Polymers for Sustainable Agricultural Applications
Beyond plastics, polymers play a vital role in our lives as key ingredients of liquid formulations. Read more
PhD Opportunity - Mechanics of multifactorial stress responses in plants – How do abiotic stress signals integrate with pathogen immunity?
'TO APPLY, PLEASE CLICK INSTITUTION WEBSITE'. Outline. Plants have the innate ability to respond to pathogens together with multiple abiotic stress challenges, but such responses often come at a cost to plant productivity and water use. Read more
Dissecting cell wall glucan function in intercellular signalling and plant environmental interactions
Apply to join the Benitez-Alfonso team in their quest to dissect the mechanisms underpinning the function of beta-1,3 glucan polymers in plant growth and development. Read more
