An integrated set of novel approaches to counter the emergence and proliferation of invasive and virulent soil-borne nematodes (Project)
The overall aim of NEM-EMERGE is to support sustainable food production in the EU and Associated and other Third Countries by the development of environmentally-sound, non-GMO solutions that counteract the effect of global warming and genetic host selection on the proliferation and increased virulence of the two most devastating plant-parasitic nematodes in major food crops. NEM-EMERGE activities...

Potential uses of biochar and Terra Preta in Bavarian agriculture - contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation – project phase 2 (Project)
Achieving climate protection targets requires a substantial reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the capture of atmospheric carbon dioxide. A promising, innovative technology is the pyrolysis of biomass, followed by the utilization of the biochar produced during the pyrolysis process. Biochar serves as a carbon sink, facilitating the soil carbon sequestration, enhancing soil quality, and...

Improve biological control of stored-product pest beetles by the combined use of semiochemicals and parasitoids (Project)
In the present project, we will study the scientific basis for the development of a new beneficial insect product against pest infestation of stored plant products and (further) develop and evaluate the idea of "attract-and-guide" in the biological control of insects damaging stored products. This is of particular interest for organic farming, where conventional pesticides cannot be used for pest...

An Alliance for the Climate – Dialogue on climate and agriculture between New Zealand and Germany (Project)
AgriDENZ aims to foster mutual learning between Germany, New Zealand and countries in the Global South on climate-resilient and climate friendly agricultural practices, and advance policy and research exchanges. Overall goal:Advance low-emission and climate-resilient agricultural and food systems Project goal:Intensify the mutual exchange of experiences and cooperation between New Zealand and...

Rhizosphere processes and yield decline in wheat crop rotations (Project)
The project deals with the elucidation and quantification of rhizosphere processes leading to yield differences in wheat grown after different preceding crops and approaches to mitigate the yield decline in wheat grown after wheat. Additionally, methods will be tested to mitigate yield reduction. Methodologically, different complementary approaches will be combined at various scales. The target...

Greenhouse gas reduction through innovative breeding advances in alternative plant protein sources- subprojects carbon footprint and value chain analysis (Project)
The sub-projects "CO2 footprint and value chain analysis" aim to estimate climate protection potentials and investigate the socio-economic effects (benefits and costs) of plant-based protein sources as a substitute for animal sources along the value chains concerned, from the producer to processing and the consumer. In particular, the limitations and obstacles of the milk and meat substitutes...

Determination of factors influencing the occurrence of organic contaminants in food-producing wild animals (including bees) and their products (Project)
The aim is A) To collect samples of bee products (e.g. honey and beeswax) of different origins and to analyse them in connection with a survey for selected organic contaminants (e.g. PFAS and PAH). In a further step, possible exposure pathways of PFAS via crops and from plants via bees into bee products will be investigated. B) to characterise PFAS contamination in wild, food-producing animals in...

Investigations on the analytical differentiation of organic and conventional wheat using the metabolomic approach (Project)
Organically grown wheat is exposed to higher levels of biotic and abiotic stress than conventionally grown wheat. A plant's response to biotic and abiotic stress at the molecular level often occurs through changes in secondary metabolism. Biotic stress caused by herbivores can, for example, promote the formation of aversive bitter substances. Abiotic stress can result from a lack or excess of...

Collaborative project: Exploitation of herbicides from saprophytic fungi as alternative plant protectants - Subproject A (Project)
Climate change facilitates the occurrence of plant diseases, which were previously not observed in Central Europe and caused by introduced phytopathogenic fungi. Some of these pathogens produce herbicidal natural products. Based on potential applications in agriculture, we aim to develop these compounds into broadly applicable and safe herbicides. In the light of changing consumer acceptance and...
