Collaborative project: Development of comfort mats for the lying and walking area of sows (PigComfort) - subproject 3 (Project)

The aim of this project is to develop rubber mats for the lying and the walking area in sow housing systems in order to improve the comfort of sows even in absence bedding material such as straw. It is expected that an improved comfort will reduce leg problems and skin lesions and will increase the productivity of sows. Furthermore, this will lead to an improvement of the economic situation in...

Collaborative Project: AUTES-Home - Automated shopping and design consultant for the Smart Home - Subproject 3 (Project)

The development and application of the proposed consumer advisory tools should greatly reduce the cost to the consumer in the selection of complex, technical products. A strong growth momentum for the market of smart homes and AAL should be triggered, which will help to solve social problems in the energy consumption and creates demographic change. Because of the computer-based consumer advisory...

Collaborative project: Broadening the genetic base and developing new (selection-) strategies for hybrid barley breeding. Subproject 3 (Project)

Hybrid varieties make a significant contribution to improving and securing yields and quality, increasing nutrient and water use efficiency, and thus conserving natural resources in global winter barley cultivation. In SpeedBarley, the genetic width of future winter barley variety development has been extended by crosses with spring barley, thus achieving significant progress in pool formation in...

Investigation of the resistance locus Rpv10 directed against Downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) of Grapevine in comparison to Rpv3 (Project)

This project investigates molecular mechanisms underlying grapevine resistance loci against Plasmopara viticola (downy mildew). Resistance loci and candidate genes elaborated in our previous work are characterized in regard to gene expression and gene diversity. Gene-specific molecular markers will be developed for best possible application in marker-assisted breeding of new grapevine cultivars....

Collaborative project: Development and launching of a drum priming procedure for minor crops in organic farming. Subproject 3 (Project)

Seed priming is until now a service for conventional farming that uses chemicals and pesticides, which are prohibited in organic farming. The preferential aim of this project is the development and subsequently a product launch of seeds that are generated with the drum priming process for the organic farming. Within the project exemplary parameters of the drum priming process will be developed...

Collaborative project: Recycling of Phosphorus - from secondary raw material to a smart fertilizer - subproject 3 (Project)

From incineration ashes from the thermal utilization of sewage sludge a sustainably manufactured fertilizer based on phosphorus is produced, which contains no heavy metals and is long-term available for plants. For this, the P-Bac method of Fritzmeier Umwelttechnik GmbH is used, that generates a rich in phosphorus P-recyclate via microbiological leaching from the ashes. This recycled material is...
