    Bumpy road to breakthrough

    Professor Torgny Näsholm received the Marcus Wallenberg Prize 2018 for the discovery that pine, spruce, and other plants can take up different kinds of organic nitrogen from the soil. He has also developed sustainable fertilizers. Torgny Näsholm says that the success is a result of a great teamwork but we would not have succeeded without all the mistakes along the road.
