Collaborative project: Data fusion in plant phenotyping using the example of Cercospora leaf blotch in sugar beet. Subproject 2 (Project)
Aim of the project DataPlant is the early detection of the leave disease Cercospora of sugar beets. A new mid-infrared hyperspectral imaging spectrometer was developed by the project partners TU Clausthal, KWS SAAT, MG Optical Solutions and InfraTec in order to detect an infection of sugar beet leaves by Cercospora. It is based on a Quantum Cascade Laser illuminating the plant at specific...

Collaborative project: Food Security in Rural Zambia: Integrating Traditional Fruit and Vegetable Crops in Smallholder Agroforestry Systems. Subproject 2 (Project)
The project addresses malnutrition in Luapula Province of Zambia and aims at developing sustainable diets well adapted to ecological conditions in wetlands of Congo Basin. Stunting is the most widespread nutritional disorder affecting children under five years, and Zambia’s national stunting rate of 45 % is high and exceeds the 40% average of sub-Saharan Africa (UNICEF 2013:8). According to...

Collaborative project: Sustainable increase of Phosphorus efficiency in winter wheat via an effective root-soil-interaction - subproject 2 (Project)
In this project, the P-efficiency of 200 wheat varieties with different P-fertilizers including a recycling P-fertilizer (P-Rec) from sewage sludge incineration was investigated. Despite seasonal differences in the raw material of the sewage sludge, the examined P-Rec fertilizer showed low pollutant levels (heavy metals and organic compounds). The P-uptake of the wheat varieties tested with...

Collaborative project: A mobile LED-laser-trap to rouse, attract, monitor and selectively combat herbivorous insects - subproject 2 (Project)
The project aims to develop a mobile LED-laser trap for herbivorous insects. Optical, olfactory and mechanical stimuli are used to rouse winged insects from plants, attract them to the LED-trap, and lethally damage them by a laser beam. Knowledge on light color and intensity as well as combination with odors that stimulate the flight behavior of insects and their orientation is applied in order...

Collaborative project: Functionalization of insect-based flours by extrusion processing for the applications in bakery products - subproject 2 (Project)
The FAO forecasts a doubling in the demand of animal protein by 2050 due to the growing world population. Therefore, there is already an urgent need to identify and to make new and sustainable protein sources accessible. Insects are considered as alternatives due to their high protein contents and relevant levels of micronutrients. The project aims at development of insect-based formulations with...

Collaborative project: Competence and practice research network for the further development of nutrient management in organic agriculture. Subproject 2 (Project)
With regard to nutrient management, organic farming presents a varied picture: on long-term organic arable farms, all the main nutrients are step by step declining towards the minimum, while organic vegetable farming shows nutrient imbalances and P oversupply. Moreover, there is a great deal of uncertainty in practice regarding soil analyses and their interpretation. Science understands the...

Collaborative project: Development of an intelligent Curtain-ventilation-sensor-system for optimised thermal comfort of cattle - subproject 2 (Project)
The goal is to develop an intelligent Curtain-ventilation-sensor-system for dairy cattle farming, which can be controlled with a new system control and regulation unit using a network of sensors within the stables. This way, the various functional areas as well as the micro-climatic zones within the stable environment can be systematically optimised. A new lighting technology integrated into the...

Collaborative project: Design, construction and test of a trough for nuzzling to facilitate species-appropriate feeding of litterless pigs – Subproject 1 (Project)
In this project, an innovative toy for pigs was developed. In production systems without the practicability for the use of bedding materials a species-appropriate burrowing behavior is not possible. With the floor-mounted, spring-loaded cone of food-safe polyurethane the animals can act out their natural needs for exploration and rooting. By the special arrangement of the rooting cones the...
