Forest insurance policy improvements based on the analysis of foresters’ behaviour in insurance decision situations (Project)
...In this project, we aim to expand the scope by additionally including foresters’ preferences in an experimental context.Bearing in mind that experimental studies on foresters’ preferences are very rare – especially in the context of insurance demand – the project pursues to develop experimental methods in forest economics by the following objectives: 1. Evaluating foresters’ risk and time preferences as well as preferences regarding forest enterprise goals 2. ...

Survey of genetic diversity of drought stress tolerance in Lolium perenne as prerequisite for development of marker based selection and breeding strategies for cultivars adapted to climate changes (Project)
...It will be ascertained if relevant characters of drought tolerance can be retrieved under such conditions thus allowing selection of interesting genotypes at an early stage. The project aims at (1) establishment of distinct phenotypic profiles, (2) conservation of plant material of all genotypes for consecutive quantitative genetic analysis and marker development and (3) provision of breeders with easy-to-handle screening methods as well as characterized pre-breeding material....

Collaborative project: Pathogen behavioural pattern and epidemiology of leptospires. Subproject Strengthening public health by understanding the epidemiology of rodent-borne diseases (Project)
...The objectives of the second phase represent a continuation of the successful analyses in the first funding period: Aim 1: Spatial distribution and temporal oscillation of PUUV infections in the reservoir host: For a more complete picture of the distribution of PUUV in the reservoir and possibilities for further spread, investigations in the currently established trapping sites in the transects should be kept, with possibilities for establishing further trapping sites in Northern Germany. Aim 2: PUUV sequence types in bank voles: In the second funding period, focus will be set on bank voles from the Eastern evolutionary lineage in federal district Osnabrueck. ...

Collaborative project: Optimization and validation of a fermented egg-white-product. Subproject 1: Coordination (Project)
...First, the optimization of the texture of the fermented egg-white-product will be conducted (Part 1). Next to this, the microbial stability of the standard version and with additional ingredients will be optimized. In addition, the effect of the raw material on product quality and stability will be proofed (Part 2). For fast market entrance, a market and trend analysis will be carried out (Part 3). ...

Spaces for action to promote sustainable, plant-centred diets in food environments of parents (Project)
...The project therefore pursues four objectives: 1) Development and schematic representation of relevant sub-areas for a sustainable, plant-centred diet in the food environments of consumers, 2) analysis of relevant relationships between the sub-areas as well as comprehensive investigation of food environments using the example of selected groups of parents, 3) identification of potentials and obstacles for shaping food environments that promote plant-centred orientated diets among parents with regard to sustainability orientation, people with little financial resources and the promotion of native protein plants, and 4) synthesis of the results to derive spaces for action in the food environments of selected groups of parents as a basis for further activities. ...

Survival strategies of Campylobacter spp. on chicken meat - identification of VBNC induction conditions and evaluation of countermeasures. (Project)
...In this context, the project is intended to establish expertise at the MRI-FL site in dealing with the topic of VBNC-Campylobacter spp.The data obtained can be made directly available to the microbiology branch of the working group (represented by MRI-FL) and will serve to 1) generate new knowledge on the prevalence of non-culturable but survivable Campylobacter spp. on broiler meat that the BMEL can use to assess the effectiveness of the process hygiene criterion, 2) advance the development of cost-effective and sensitive detection methods for VBNC-Campylobacter spp. and thus enable cost estimation on VBNC screening methods, 3) enable BMEL to re-evaluate Campylobacter control measures incorporating the VBNC issue as a decision support tool for future Campylobacter spp. control measure packages....

Facilitating Insects in Agricultural Landscapes. Subproject Monitoring of yield, develpment of methods and statistics (Project)
...The landscape laboratories, i.e. landscape sections in which measures for the promotion of insects are established, are examined with regard to the initial situation, the management options and the effects of the measures on various characteristics, especially in relation to the occurrence of certain insect groups and their functionality (e.g. in integrated pest management)....
