Perennial crops have the potential to reduce the need for ploughing and pesticides, which in turn can lead to reduced soil degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. Recently, a unique research infrastructure that has the potential to transform agriculture was inaugurated by the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science and LUCSUS, in collaboration with SLU Alnarp. The new facility, fu
