This is clearly a breakthrough for #peatland restoration and #paludiculture: A large industrial player has decided to use shipping boxes with paludiculture biomass only by 2028. I wouldn't have believed this a few years ago! #peatlandsmatter
Wie werden Paludi-Produkte das neue Normal? Erstmals gelingt das mit dem Paludi-Versandkarton. Seit gestern offiziell: Bis 2028 sollen alle (!) Kartons bei OTTO höchstmöglichen Paludi-Anteil haben. Gratulation zu dieser Entscheidung! @succow-stiftung.de @fnr.de @bmel.de

New research shows that farming adapted to wetter soils could benefit bird communities

Sites contained 3X more birds than drained grasslands

Typha‐based paludiculture offers potential for greater bird species abundance and diversity than drained agricultural grassland
Re-wetting drained peat for Typha paludiculture provides a productive, low-emission land use that can support diverse bird communities. Across 28 sites in the Netherlands, breeding bird abundance in ...

What are the greenhouse gas emissions savings associated with paludiculture?

As part of a DEFRA fellowship I had a go at trying to answer this question and create an emission factor for Paludiculture in the England!

What are the greenhouse gas emissions savings associated with paludiculture?
Paludiculture is a potential solution to minimising the 1.5% of total UK emissions from lowland peat.

Paludiculture (wet agriculture) can align peatland restoration with farming, yet remains in a niche in Germany. Our new PLOS Sustainability & Transformation study examines pioneer farmers’ motivations & barriers. With M. Merkelbach, @laurakmoch.bsky.social & C. Heindorf. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Paludiculture - how about it in the UK? 🌱

Still quite experimental, Lorna Parker tells us.
As a project manager in the Great Fen she is involved in setting up Typha cultivation and scale it up.
In Germany, Lorna thinks, there is quite some paludiculture knowledge which can be applied in the UK.

Whilst paludiculture cannot replace wetland restoration, it has the potential to help deliver nature-positive, climate-resilient landscapes while supporting communities into the future

💡 Our “Database of Potential Paludiculture Plants (DPPP)” lists conventional plants that thrive in wet conditions in the Holarctic - typical bog plants as well as species that are already being used successfully in paludiculture.

#EGU25 will have many great #peatland sesssions, and if you work on #paludiculture, restoration or managed peatlands, ours might be the one for you:

🌍 Where in Europe are peatlands used for agriculture?
Just look at this 🗺️👉 greifswaldmoor.de/files/images... 🔗
Understanding where and how peatlands are used is key to understand opportunities for land use change and wet alternatives like paludiculture 🌱💧

Sunday for #peatlands! Just travelling to a huge drained fen area NW of Berlin to present my book (co-production w. @veraschroeder.bsky.social) and discuss with locals, incl. many farmers, about the past & the future. Yes, it takes time. But I also learn an awful lot in such meetings! #paludiculture

Paludiculture is still early in development in the UK, requiring more investment and advisory support

A project led by the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group (FWAG) South West, in collaboration with the RSPB, is working to develop best practice for establishing and managing bulrush crops
