Sociological studies about organic farming (Project)

Organic farming claims for knowledge, professional skills and individual engagement. Most of these claims focus on environmental protection, animal welfare and sound food processing. The EU regulation 834/2007 decribe the goals of organic farming. Although it seems self-evident that organic farming is able to meet it`s self proclaimed standards and targets some research projects underscore...

Standardization of quality factors for agricultural biogas plants (Project)

Definition of minimum standards in order to achieve a better protection of the climate and environment. The results should be active in form of consumer protection, in order to reduce the pollution of the environment by the fast expansion of biogas plant applications.

Synergy of bioenergy plant cultivation and biodiversity (Project)

An efficient contribution to the improvement of the biological diversity should be made by specific mixed culture of cultural and wild plants in agriculture areas with possibility of utilisation of the yields for the bioenergy production. For this a mixture of population rye, corn cockle (Agrostemma githago) and wooly vetch (Vicia villosa) is checked for less fertile, sandy soils.

Trilateral Project: GrapeReSeq; Large scale re-sequencing in the Vitis genus for identification of resistance genes, SNP discovery and high throughput genotyping (Project)

Within the joined research project GrapeReSeq grape genomes are being resequenced to identify genes relevant for breeding. At JKI a genetic map of the rootstock cultivar and interspecific hybrid 'Börner' (being sequenced at Bielefeld University) will be improved. Based on a dense genetic map a physical map will be generated. In addition, the progeny ('Trollinger' x 'Riesling') x 'Börner' will be...

Enhancements of pest risk analysis techniques (PRATIQUE) (Project)

PRATIQUE (Enhancements of Pest Risk Analysis Techniques) will carry out all the key work listed in the call and address the major challenges for pest risk analysis (PRA) in Europe. This will be achieved through three principal objectives: to assemble the datasets required to construct effective PRAs valid for the whole of the EU, to conduct multi-disciplinary research that enhances the techniques...

Contained molecular farming - Controllable contained systems for high yield and consistency (CoMoFarm) (Project)

The CoMoFarm project will establish high-yielding production systems for pharmaceutical and industrial proteins based on plants, plant tissue and plant cells. The aim is to develop systems in which both the production host and the product itself show consistent yield and quality. The project will include a comparison of four alternative systems hydroponic plants, root cultures, moss and...

Industrial crops producing added value oils for novel chemicals (ICON) (Project)

Replacing fossil oil with renewable resources is perhaps the most urgent need and the most challenging task that human society faces today. Cracking fossil hydrocarbons and building the desired chemicals with advanced organic chemistry usually requires many times more energy than is contained in the final product. Thus, using plant material in the chemical industry does not only replace the...
