Climate-friendly pork production along the value chain from field to fork (Project)

The project firstly analyses the current state of pork production in Southern Germany with regard to climate-relevant CO2 emissions in the complete process from field to fork. Then, measures to reduce CO2 emissions are identified and implemented with the aim of climate-friendly pork production. Company carbon footprints are developed and subjected to CO2 certification with the corresponding audit...

AI language assistance system for farms (Project)

The aim of this project is to develop an AI voice assistant system that supports farms in their daily work processes as well as in strategic planning and decision-making. The voice assistant is intended to simplify internal organisation and documentation through ´hands-free´ interactions and significantly reduce bureaucracy. By using the voice assistant directly at the point of action - be it in...

Cooperative peatland utilisation in the Oldenburger Graben in Schleswig-Holstein (Project)

In the Oldenburger Graben region, a new concept for the communal use of moorland is to be developed that takes into account the various alternative production methods, land owners and users and their objectives. Estimates will be made of the impact on the land, the structure, the number of farms and the added value of the land users and owners in the Oldenburger Graben region. The utilization...

Local groundwater recharge (flood protection and drought prevention) (Project)

Climate change is increasing the need for artificial irrigation in agriculture. Increased precipitation extremes (long dry periods interrupted by heavy rainfall) lead to an impairment of local groundwater recharge. Agriculture is particularly affected by this because the soil can no longer fully absorb the heavy rainfall after long dry periods and an increasing proportion of the rainwater quickly...

Mykovoltaik - an integrative agricultural cultivation management with hazelnuts and truffles under Agri-PV as a climate-resilient innovation (Project)

The Mykovoltaik project focuses on innovation impulses for the development of processes for the multiple use of agricultural and forestry land in the agricultural and food sector. Within the framework of this project, an innovative and climate-resilient concept for the multiple use of cultivated land will be realized by combining hazelnut bushes with truffle cultivation as a mycorrhizal fungus in...

Improving the Arnica value chain (Project)

Due to a sharp rise in the price of Arnica montana flowers, the cultivation of the flower now appears to be economically viable compared to wild collection, which used to be cheaper. Arnica cultivation can therefore represent an attractive alternative crop for farmers with high added value. The aim of the project is therefore to develop alternative sources of income for small and medium-sized...

Sustainable cut flowers (Project)

The continued existence of the traditional cut flower industry in Hamburg is jeopardised by various challenges. Imported goods from the global South can be produced at more favourable prices. At the same time, this is accompanied by high negative environmental effects. There is a risk of an even greater relocation of production abroad. The aim of the project is to develop a comprehensive,...

Sustainable, biodiversity-promoting pasture farming of cattle in Schleswig-Holstein (Project)

Pasture farming plays a central role in sustainable agriculture and in the conservation of biodiversity. However, there are challenges related to animal health, parasite infestation and the genetic improvement of pasture-fed cattle that need to be addressed to support and further develop this practice. The project aims to strengthen pasture farming. To this end, the effects of anthelmintics...

Beneficial insect tents - open breeding of aphid antagonists in the field (Project)

After a winter break, aphids become active earlier than their counterparts. This head start can only be made up for by the antagonists later, resulting in a high aphid pressure in spring, which is almost impossible for vegetable growers to control biologically. The ?beneficial insect tents? project aims to eliminate this advantage. To this end, special tents are to be developed in which...

Ribwort plantain for nitrous oxide reduction (Project)

In modern agriculture, nitrous oxide emissions and nitrate pollution from the use of fertilisers are a significant problem. These emissions contribute to climate change and nitrate pollution jeopardises water quality. In addition, these environmental problems also pose financial challenges for farmers, especially in vegetable production where fertiliser use is intensive. The project aims to...
