Want to be a guest researcher?

Are you already studying deep roots and their nutrient uptake using, e.g., isotope tracers?
Or are you studying root development and intercropping systems of deep rooted crops?
Or even microbial or organic carbon dynamics in deep soils?

With some unique facilities at hand, we are looking for collaboration with researchers to generate scientific knowledge of deep-rooted crops and cropping systems.

The Deep Frontier project carries out research into deep root exploitation of subsoil resources in order to enhance food production in a sustainable way. Research on deep roots down to 5 meters is the focus of Deep Frontier. For this purpose, the project has established unique research facilities at Højbakkegård in Denmark (DK-2630 Taastrup):

12 root towers, each being 4 meters tall, and
24 field plots with ingrowth cores and minirhizotrons down to 5 meters
