Abstract
The study evaluated the effects of replacing whole-plant grass silage with ensiled grass pulp on dairy cow performance and enteric methane emissions. Using a controlled feeding experiment with 40 cows, the results showed reduced dry matter intake but maintained milk production and similar methane intensity due to improved feed efficiency in cows fed pulp. These findings highlight the potential for grass pulp as a viable forage component in green biorefinery value chains.

As the EU intensifies its climate ambitions with the upcoming 2040 targets, it is crucial to understand how implementation of existing EU climate policies is going. How well are current policies working on the ground? Are we on track – or are there gaps that need urgent attention? As the debate around the 2040 targets heats up, this policy brief provides a timely assessment of how existing policies play out in practice and to what extent and how implementation varies across countries. Looking at Norway and Denmark, we compare the implementation of three EU regulations, which were revised in 2023: the EU Emission Trading Scheme (ETS), the Effort-Sharing Regulation (ESR) and the Land Use, Land-Use Change, and Forestry (LULUCF) sector.

Abstract
The global loss of biodiversity and natural capital, driven by land use change, poses a risk for vital ecosystem services, such as air and water filtration, food provisioning, and wellbeing. Ecosystem accounting is a framework for documenting ecosystem extent, condition and the services which they produce. Questions remain about the way in which this new framework can be implemented and utilised in spatial planning. Using Norway as a case study, we perform a requirements analysis of its current spatial planning system, drawing on qualitative data from planning professionals and planning policy documents, to understand the contemporary problems within planning related to the use of ecological data. Ecological data is currently produced to adhere to the knowledge deficit model of decision making, whereby more data and knowledge lead to better decisions. However, our current communicative planning system relies on participation for knowledge gathering, which becomes an issue when the scope, communication method, and timing of communication are barriers to knowledge being used in a decision. We therefore propose a new theoretical model, PRISM, based on the analogy of a prism, as its purpose is to break ecological data up to meet the diverse objectives of, and thus engage with, as many actors as possible. The analogy is derived from the finding that ecological data and knowledge constitutes only one band in the spectrum of considerations and knowledge used in decisions. Framing is proposed as the method to achieve this effect with ecosystem accounting data, thereby activating participation to meet policy and actor objectives.
