Abstract The primary benefits of turfgrass sod include rapid greenery and soil coverage, but its production causes concerns about soil losses at production sites. Soil adheres to the grass root system during harvesting and is removed from the sod farm, which in the long run might lead to soil degradation on the sod farm. In this study, we investigated sod thickness and the removal of organic and mineral matter when harvesting 24 fields representing 12 Norwegian sod farms in 2022 and 2023. On each field, 10 sod strips were randomly chosen, and five sod plugs were collected from each strip. Sod thickness was measured using a sliding gauge. Sod mineral matter (SMM: soil and thatch mineral matter) and sod organic matter (SOM: soil and thatch organic matter) contents were quantified by loss on ignition at 550°C. Management and field properties were also documented. Results showed an average amount of mineral matter in the sod strips of 36 Mg ha −1 for all fields but with significant variation among fields ( p < 0.001). The average SOM content was 10 Mg ha −1 . Mean sod thickness was 15.4 mm and had a strong correlation with SOM ( r = 0.8) but only a moderate correlation with SMM ( r = 0.6). Soil water content and surface hardness at harvest affected sod thickness and SMM only slightly. Sod harvesters with twin heads harvested significantly thicker sod strips and removed more mineral matter than harvesters with single cutting heads. Soil texture did not have a significant impact on sod thickness or mineral matter removal.

I en sammenstilt studie har økologisk drevne mjølkebruk lavere klimagassutslipp per kg produsert mjølk og kjøtt. Imidlertid har økologisk produksjon større arealbehov per produsert enhet

The study focuses on ecosystem services, historical aspects, and natural diversity. Specifically, it assesses possible proxies for investigating a set of cultural ecosystem services from the Norwegian agricultural landscape. Agricultural areas on the Norwegian land cover map surrounded by a 100 m wide buffer zone were analyzed for recorded historical buildings, cultural heritage sites, red-listed vascular plant species (defined as being at varying degrees at risk of extinction), and red-listed nature types (defined as endangered or vulnerable). The results indicate significant contributions from agricultural landscapes with respect to historical buildings, cultural heritage sites, and red-listed plant species. Regarding red-listed nature types, the contributions were diverse. The ecosystem proxies investigated showed increasing distribution trends with increasing proportions of agricultural landscapes in the spatial units, with a sharp increase with smaller area sizes. However, for cultural heritage sites the trend was different when the proportion of the agricultural landscape was below 25%; it showed a very slow increase. In conclusion, the study highlights the agricultural landscape’s diverse contributions to the investigated ecosystem services in Norway, prompting the need for further research on additional ecosystem services to ensure the continued delivery of environmental and social well-being.
