Collaborative project: Breeding of organic open pollinating zucchini cultivars – selection and evaluation of G x E interactions with regard to agronomic parameters, organoleptic attributes and volatile and non-volatile compounds. Subproject 3 (Project)

The overall goal of the project is the development of open pollinating zucchini cultivars based on the traditional breeding method of single plants' progenies. The major breeding goals will consider agronomic parameters, GxE interactions, and organoleptic attributes associated with volatile and non-volatile compounds. Different breeding lines of zucchini will be evaluated for their agronomic...

Collaborative project: Utilisation-oriented investigations of low-value hardwood assortments for the production of innovative products. Subproject 3: Value chain hardwood (solid) from low-value assortments. Use of hardwoods for the production of insulating materials (Project)

The focus of the work is on indigenous hardwood species; beech, oak, ash, maple and birch. The aim is to make hardwood for use in construction economically viable (i.e. to produce the product more efficiently and thus more cost-effectively).

Collaborative project: Quantification of the economic relevance of raw milk marketing on farms in Germany via vending machines, with special relevance to conditions of location and investment cost, as well as successful hygiene management expenses. Subproject 3 (Project)

The project aims to perform a German-wide, representative survey of the economic impact and growth potential of raw milk marketing via vending machines, with reference to equipment technology and food hygiene aspects. Therefore, the market potential of direct commercialization under varying conditions, e.g. location and investment cost, will be determined. In a further task, equipment technology...

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 3 (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...

KULUNDA: How to prevent the next »Global Dust Bowl«? Ecological and economic strategies for sustainable land management in the Russian steppes: A potential solution to climate change. Subproject 3: Soil ecology, metabolism, agricultural economics, environment (Project)

The overarching goals of this subproject are: to lay the scientific basis for sustainable and carbon-optimized land management in the largest conversion areas in the world, located in the south Siberian/Kazakh steppes to investigate how these vulnerable agricultural ecosystems can be best adapted to climate change. Individual objectives are: to evaluate the organic carbon (OC) storage in soils...

Collaborative project: Breeding fast growing tree species of the genus Populus, Robinia and Salix for the production of renewable resources in the short rotation. Subproject 3: Evaluation and cultivation of aspen poplars as well as clone testing for abiotic resistance (Project)

Breeding of fast-growing varieties of the genus Populus, Robinia, and Salix for the production of renewable resources in short rotation coppice plantations. Main objectives are selection, genetic characterisation, testing of resistance, and hybridisation of poplars within the section Populus as well as the cultivation of plants for test plantations. Plus trees and stands of black locust will be...

Collaborative project: Resource efficient plant protection based on a data driven multi-scale approach for the process chain: Diseases detection - decision support - demand specific fungicide application - subproject 3 (Project)

By increasing resource efficiency, agriculture can make an important contribution to increasing raw material productivity, which is anchored in the German government's sustainability strategy. In order to achieve this increase, a systemic approach for the needs-based use of fungicides for leaf diseases in winter wheat and sugar beet was researched and implemented as a prototype. Essential...

Collaborative project: Development of a method for testing authenticity of grains (variety, purity of variety, geographic origin, cultivation method, unknown adulteration) by means of combination of stabile isotope analysis with different spectral product fingerprints. Subproject 3 (Project)

Checking the origin of grains, i.e., which type / variety, cultivation region or cultivation method, is important for guaranteed authentic food, which consumers increasingly appreciate. The AgrOr project consortium used an analytical ecosystem for this. A large number of samples were systematically examined with various analytical technologies such as NMR, IRMS, IR, RAMAN, LCMS in order to...
