“…According to the EU target (Directive 2018(Directive /2001, by 2030 at least 32% of energy consumption should come from renewable sources. In this context, the economic profitability of biomass from different species, including some paulownia clones, has been assessed in several EU countries (Zuazo et al, 2013;Jurekova et al, 2015;Testa et al, 2022;Alaejos et al, 2023).…”

The research carried out a comparative study of the micropropagation capacity of Paulownia tomentosa (Thunb.) Steud plants and 2 hybrid clones (Paulownia elongata × Paulownia fortunei) in vitro 112 and Cotevisa 2, depending on the culture media. Specificity depending on the genotyp and culture medium, regarding the number of initiation shoots per explant, was attested. The variation limits of the average values of the proliferation coefficient for the 3 genotypes fluctuate depending on the culture medium, being 0.75 ÷ 8.00 for Cotevisa 2; 0.67 ÷ 5.00 for the in vitro 112 clone and 1.00 ÷ 6.00 in the case of the P. tomentosa. The proliferation coefficient in the MS 7 variant increased by 3.16 times, 1.94 and 1.45 times compared to the MS 1, MS 2, and MS 5 media in the Cotevisa 2, and for P. tomentosa and the in vitro clone 112 1.76-1.68 and 2.48-2.12 times, respectively. Application of the ANOVA test revealed a significant influence of culture medium on the proliferation coefficient with a confidential level of 99.9%. In our experiments, the genotype and the interaction of both factors genotype-culture medium did not present a source of variation at p ≤0.05. Minishoots cut and transferred to rhizogenesis on basal MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg•L -1 NAA and 0.4 mg•L -1 IBA started to form roots after 7 days. The established conditions that ensure 100% rate rooting and ex vitro acclimatization conditions for survival on soil substrate offer increased possibilities for mass multiplication of paulownia.

This paper presents changes in basic energy parameters of fodder galega (Galega orientalis Lam.) cultivated for five years as a potential energy crop under the effect of mineral fertilization. Additionally, the chemical composition of ash obtained after burning the fodder galega biomass was examined for its possible use as a liming agent. The field experiment was conducted between 2005 and 2009 in the experimental plots of the Soil Science and Plant Nutrition Department at the Siedlce University of Natural Sciences and Humanities, Poland (52 o 17´N and 22 o 28´E). Five levels of fertilization were included in the study: without fertilization, NP, NK, PK, NPKCa (0control, N-20, P-50, K-150, Ca-150 kg . ha -1 ). Significantly highest values of heat of combustion (18.95 MJ . kg -1 ) and calorific value were found for galega fertilized with nitrogen (20 kg . ha -1 ) and potassium (150 kg . ha -1 ). The highest dry matter yields and the highest yield energy value, as well as the most amount of ash obtained from biomass combusting were found for galega harvested from objects fertilized with NPKCa (20; 50; 150; 150 kg . ha -1

“…The use of this potential would be necessary not only for the energy yield and thus saving finance, but also for the disposal of agricultural waste, which causes frequent problems. Not only surplus agricultural land, but also others, differently devastated land can be advantageously used for obtaining energy phytomass (Jureková et al, 2015).…”

Growing energy crops is one of the possibilities of using temporarily, respectively persistent unused agricultural land. In Slovakia, 44% (1,064,625 ha) of secondary and other land of the total land fund can be use also for establishment plantations of energy crops. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the impact of the planting material energy crop Miscanthus on canopied growth and productivity of the growth. Mortality of the individuals and the ability of the individuals to create aboveground organs in the year of the establishment and dynamics biomass production in the following years have been assessed. The growth of fast-growing crop Miscanthus was established on a field experimental basis. Two genotypes: Miscanthus × giganteus (planting materials were rhizomes) and Miscanthus sinensis Tatai (planting materials were in vitro seedlings) have been observed. Relatively high mortality of the individuals (31%) was confirmed in rhizomes plantation. In the first year of cultivation, the growth of the Miscanthus × giganteus created clusters with total average number 26.07 stems per cluster with count yield biomass 11.10 t*ha -1 within the research area. The growth of the Miscanthus sinensis Tatai was full canopied at the end of the growing period in the year of its establishment. Miscanthus sinensis Tatai created average 37.60 stems per cluster with count yield biomass 10.80 t*ha AbstraktPestovanie energetických rastlín je jednou z možností, ako využiť dočasne, resp. trvalo nevyužívanú poľnohospodársku pôdu. Na Slovensku je 44% (1 064 625 ha) sekundárnej a ostatnej pôdy z celkového pôdneho fondu možné využiť aj na zakladanie plantáží energetických rastlín. Cieľom príspevku je zhodnotiť vplyv výsadbového materiálu energetickej byliny Miscanthus na celkovú zapojenosť a produktivitu porastu, zhodnotiť mortalitu jedincov a ich schopnosť vytvárať nadzemné orgány v roku založenia porastu a dynamiku produkcie biomasy v nasledovných rokoch. Porast bol založený na poľnej pokusnej báze Boli sledované dva genotypy: Miscanthus × giganteus (výsadbový materiál boli rizómy) a Miscanthus sinensis Tatai (výsadbový meteriál boli sadenice in vitro). Pri Miscanthus× giganteus bola potvrdená pomerne vysoká mortalita (31%). Rastliny vytvorili v prvom roku pestovania trsy s celkovým priemerným počtom 26,07 stebiel na trs s prepočítanou úrodou biomasy 11,10 t*ha . Po piatom vegetačnom roku (2014) dosiahol porast Miscanthus priemernú produkciu 28.60 t*ha -1 suchej biomasy. Porast založený z rizómov nedosiahol plné zapojenie v roku založenia plantáže a bolo potrebné doplniť výsadbu v nasledujúcom roku.
