Agroforestry trees for soil health, climate resilience, and food security
Co-supervision. Christopher McGurk (DEFRA). Climate change threatens global food security, with increasing droughts, heatwaves and heavy rainfall seriously impacting UK food production. Read more
Nanoemulsification process relevant to the development of environmentally friendly crop protection products (Ref: AACME-24-034)
There is growing resistance to existing pesticides used for crop protection resulting in a growing demand for new formulation products. Read more
Industry level data integration and development of a digital sustainability platform and decision support tool for agricultural production systems in Ireland. Ref: WD_2024_06_SPONS
Project Key Words. Sustainable agriculture; Digital platform; Life cycle assessment. Post summary. Project background. The Irish agricultural sector is facing the complex task of balancing global food demand with national and international environmental targets. Read more
