Researchers from the Faculty of Agriculture (Zagreb) have conducted a comprehensive study of the impact of miscanthus cultivation on carbon sequestration. The most important key message is that between 1.2-5.5% of total annual Croatian GHG emissions from the Agriculture sector could be annually removed from the atmosphere if 5-15% of currently abandoned agricultural land would …
Researchers from Germany, UK, Poland and Chine published their review of Miscanthus farming implementation, with the special attention on agro-practices, expenses & profit, and labor needs
We are happy to announce that, despite the COVID-19 pandemic and related quarantine restrictions, we’ve managed to harvest rhizomes from our Miscanthus giganteus nursery plantations.
We recently informed you how we have successfully completed biomass harvesting of our miscanthus fields. Shortly after, a portion of that biomass successfully found itsā users ā and they are thrilled. Therefore, we are bringing you a short video where you can see the first media clips from the userās yards and stables.
We’ve prepared everything for miscanthus field day 2020, to show farmers how ordinary agricultural machinery, which can be found in every large village, works perfectly at miscanthus biomass harvesting.Ā

Wood-fired power will actually increase emissions over timescales relevant to the Paris Agreement
Europe is on a journey to phase out coal. Fifteen countries have announced an end to coal burning in their power sectors since 2015. This gives a wealth of policy experience to learn from. This report contains insight from 20 experts across 10 countries. Together, the policies suggested fit together to solve the puzzle of …
For the purpose of Croatian abandoned agricultural areas revitalization, experts from the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Zagreb (Prof. Neven VoÄa, Ph.D., Assist. Prof. Nikola Bilandžija, PhD, Luka CeroveÄki, Mag. Ing. Agr., And Prof. Tajana KriÄka, Ph.D.) have analysed current state and identified the possibilities of introducing miscanthus to these areas. They concluded that biomass …
