| grasenzo.nl | GrasenZo | The project, located near Stavenisse, utilizes the former fish farm to create a trial farm for the combination of grass and reed cultivation with mussel harvesting. A closed water cycle is being installed with rainwater collection and storage in the former fish tank basins, to support both the irrigation of the grasses and reeds and the mussel production. The harvest of grasses and reeds will be used to produce articles and generate energy, while residues will also be used in mussel cultivation. Furthermore, research is being conducted into the cultivation of mammoth sedge on acidified soils, and subsidy has been received for this project. | Nature → Botany 190 | mussel 145 grass 238 water 2501 energy 9075 | Netherlands → Zeeland 15493 |
