Paludiculture can support biodiversity conservation in rewetted fen peatlands [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Paludiculture, the productive use of wet or rewetted peatlands, offers an option for continued land use by farmers after rewetting formerly drained peatlands, while reducing the greenhouse gas emissions from peat soils.

Typha for paludiculture—Suitable water table and nutrient conditions for potential biomass utilization explored in mesocosm gradient experiments [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Drainage has turned 650,000 km2 of peatlands worldwide into greenhouse gas sources. To counteract climate change, large‐scale rewetting is necessary while agricultural use of rewetted areas, termed paludiculture, is still possible.

Choose Wisely: Great Variation among Genotypes of Promising Paludiculture Crop Phragmites australis [PDF]
Plants, 2023 Measures mitigating the climate crisis, such as paludiculture, which is the agriculture on rewetted peatlands, are urgently needed. The cosmopolitan species Phragmites australis has the potential to be used in paludiculture worldwide but is known for its

Hands-On Approach to Foster Paludiculture Implementation and Carbon Certification on Extracted Peatland in Latvia [PDF]
LandVoluntary carbon markets open horizons for private companies, public institutions, and individuals developing CO2 removal projects in peatlands to reduce overall carbon footprint. These steps, however, should be in line with appropriate rewetting targets.

Spatial potential for paludicultures to reduce agricultural greenhouse gas emissions: an analytic tool [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2019 Following the recent international agreements on climate action, there is an urgent need to reduce agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Wet cultivation of peatlands (paludiculture) can combine low GHG emissions with productive use of the land ...

Ratio vegetation indices have the potential to predict extractable protein yields in green protein paludiculture [PDF]
Mires and Peat, 2023 Paludiculture can be a tool to incentivise rewetting of agricultural peatlands with the option for biomass utilisation in green protein biorefineries. However, the economic feasibility for green protein paludiculture depends on product maximisation. This
