Collaborative project: Analysis of locomotion in cattle using fluoroscopy and novel load measurement systems as a basis for modification of claw trimming methods and a sustainable optimization of species-appropriate animal husbandry - subproject 2 (Project)

The project ProKlaue developed and evaluated procedures for a sustainable improvement of husbandry conditions and optimization of claw health management in dairy cows. The overarching goal was a significant improvement of claw health in intense housing systems and the improvement of animal wellbeing. Claw biomechanics of the bovine distal limb were analyzed in ex vivo and in vivo studies using...

Collaborative project: Improvement of grape quality of the RMS-steep-slope-harvester through the implementation of a mechanical separation and sortation process immediately after harvest placed on the carrier of the RMS-TVE. Subproject 2 (Project)

The goal of the project is to ensure the sustainable management of steep and terraced vineyards in quality-oriented viticulture by the mechanization of the main work peak (grape harvest) which fulfills current quality requirements of machine harvest. The separation technology on the carrier of the RMS TVE is designed to increase the profitability of the steep slope viticulture through direct...

Collaborative project: Development and validation of a method for the determination of glucocorticoids in hair and feathers as a biological indicator for retrospective non-invasive monitoring of animal welfare in different livestock species. Subproject 2 (Project)

"In a joint project of the FBN Dummerstorf and the FLI Celle, the applicability of cortisol concentrations in hair samples from cattle and pigs and of corticosterone concentrations in feathers from chickens and turkeys as an indicator of stress was investigated. Protocols for the respective detection methods were developed. Subsequent studies identified various stress-unrelated factors...
