Typha‐based paludiculture offers potential for greater bird species abundance and diversity than drained agricultural grassland

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
Agriculture on drained lowland peat, though very productive, contributes significantly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. One potential solution is to implement paludiculture: an agricultural system of cropping with raised water tables.

Wetland Plants and Aboriginal Paludiculture in North- and South-Eastern Australia

Plant Perspectives
Aboriginal peoples in north- and south-eastern Australia practiced paludiculture, the cultivation of wetland plants for consumption, for many thousands of years before Europeans invaded them in the 1830s and 1840s.

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

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

Towards Large-Scale Paludiculture: Addressing the Challenges of Biomass Harvesting in Wet and Rewetted Peatlands [PDF]

Mires and Peat, 2015
Peatland drainage causes peat degradation, which results in high greenhouse gas emissions and ongoing subsidence of the ground surface. To avoid further land degradation, the rewetting of peatlands is essential. The new land use concept of paludiculture -

Species-dependent methane emissions in a Dutch peatland during paludiculture establishment [PDF]

Mires and Peat
Paludiculture (crop cultivation on wet peatlands) is an effective means to reduce carbon emissions and nutrient losses from formerly drained peatlands. However, methane (CH4) emissions and associated pathways may vary substantially between paludicultures, depending on the cultivated paludicrop.
