Harvested Reed – Cleans the Sea and Benefits the Land

Reed is a sustainable but underutilized material that, when harvested, can contribute to a cleaner and healthier Baltic Sea. By harvesting reed, nitrogen and phosphorus are removed from the water and can instead be beneficial on land, for instance as nutrient-rich material for cultivation, animal feed filler, and packaging material. Axfoundation is testing several uses for harvested reed.
