Study visit and Workshop: Climate and Societal Benefits with Fast-Growing Broadleaves

3/14/2023

Mörrum

Welcome to a workshop on 14-15 March on how fast-growing broadleaf trees can become part of future forestry.

This workshop focuses on involving different stakeholders in current research on fast-growing broadleaves. Decision-makers who shape our landscapes with various regulations, farmers and foresters who plant crops and produce food, feed and woody raw materials, local authorities in county administrations who own and lease out agricultural land, marginal land, industrial land, forestland and are willing to re-think how to manage these areas – you all are warmly welcome!

During the days, study visits to Mörrum's pulp mill are arranged and Södra's investment in textile pulp and recycling of cotton in Mörrum's mill is presented. A field trip is arranged to an experimental plantation with birch and hybrid aspen. There is also a workshop for landowners, policymakers and advisors when doctoral students will give popular science presentations on forestry with fast-growing broadleaf trees.
