Collaborative project: Assessing performance in relation to animal health and welfare and their economic implications based on an aggregated indicator concept in dairy production. Subproject 2 (Project)

"Animal welfare in livestock husbandry is an important societal issue. In dairy farming, production diseases and the short life of dairy cows are the main reasons of concern. They indicate an overstrained capacity of the animals to cope with their living conditions as well as of the farm to meet animals' needs. In the “Tier-Wirt” project, a concept for the data-based evaluation of ""animal...

Collaborative project: Development of biotechnological methods for the identification, conservation, propagation and use of selected maple trees with wavy grain for timber production - Subproject 2 (Project)

Wavy grain maple is one of the most expensive hardwoods in Central Europe. In the frame of this project, biotechnological methods for the propagation of valuable wavy grain maple material and for the long-term conservation of genetically characterized clones will be developed. In addition, investigations towards the heritability and recognizability of the wavy grain will be conducted. Another aim...

Collaborative project: Development and validation of a cellular test system for allergen trace amount detection and determination of allergenic potential of processed foods - subproject 2 (Project)

It is of utmost importance for consumers as well as for food manufacturers that the allergen content of a product is correctly labeled. Allergic consumers need to be certain that a safe product is consumed and manufacturers want to avoid unnecessary labeling. Ideally only food products truely implying a certain risk for affected persons should be labeled, improving the freedom of choice via...

Collaborative project: Mitigation of ammonia and greenhouse gas emission and improving nitrogen use efficiency by innovative slurry and digestate application techniques for growing crops. Subproject 2 (Project)

One of the most important approaches to reduce ammonia and greenhouse gas emission from crop production is the adoption of new low-emission application techniques for slurry and digestate that are nutrient-efficient, environmentally and climate-friendly. In field trials with winter wheat and permanent grassland at four locations in Germany, different application techniques for cattle slurry and...

Collaborative project: Development of an assessment system to evaluate animal welfare and the environmental impact of horse management by computer-based consultation instruments - subproject 2 (Project)

A uniform assessment and species-appropriate optimization of sport- and leisure-horse husbandries considering environmental criteria is deemed urgently required. However, till today there is no objective assessment tool available, that is both scientifically sound as well as feasible. Aim of the project 'BestTUPferd' is to establish a digital consulting tool for horse-keeping farms. The concept...

Collaborative project: Development of a multi-sensor system for the evaluation of the health condition of plants in horticulture including a control system for an automated crop protection agent application based on the analysis of digital imagery and short range photogrammetry (PlantSens_II) - subproject C (Project)

PlantSens II focuses on research about the health condition of plants used in horticulture in respect to upcoming pests and diseases and water supply using methods of short range photogrammetry. The basis for the development of the multiple sensor system PlantSens II will be developed by industrial, applied research. Within the proposed project a hyperspectral camera system in combination with...

Mobile pathogen diagnostics in poultry farming at the point of need should contribute to reducing the use of antibiotics and increasing animal health - subproject C (Project)

The aim of the project is to establish mobile on-site diagnostics for the detection and monitoring of multi-resistant pathogens in poultry farming as a basis for deciding on and controlling intervention measures. As part of the project, prevalence monitoring for multi resistant bacteria is being carried out using laboratory diagnostics and a portable sample-to-answer diagnostic system is being...
