Collaborative project: Smartphone based optical procedures for the characterization of individual components for the production of mineral bulk blend fertilizers and for the classification of spreading patterns to optimize machine settings for spinning disc spreaders – subproject 2 (Project)

Currently dry mixed mineral fertilisers are growing in popularity among German farmers. So far, however, there is no convincing procedure which ensures the selection of suitable mixing fertilisers and an optimal adjustment of centrifugal spreaders. For this purpose the R&D-project ‘OptiBlend’ has worked on the development of a smartphone app, which identifies the different fertiliser particles by...

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 2: Breeding, genetic characterisation, and capacity assessment of Populus-poplar and black locust (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: Breeding methodically optimized intercropping of Andean Lupin and Maize as well as White Lupin and Oat with the aim of biomass production by using ecosystem services of Lupins. Subproject 2: Evaluation of combinations and cultivation techniques (Project)

The integration of lupins with high biomass potential into new cultivation systems will enable the exploitation of ecosystem services of leguminous crops for energy crop cultivation in the coming project. The system of intercropping maize with Andean lupins (Lupinus mutabilis) is to be based on the hybrid breeding methodology of combining optimized partners that have been tested and selected for...

Collaborative project: Breeding and mass propagation of peat moss in Sphagnum farming to create a sustainable supply of renewable raw material for horticultural growing media. Subproject 2: Smart Sphagnum Breeding (SSB) of new Sphagnum cultivars to increase productivity (Project)

To reach high yields and thus make Sphagnum farming economically feasible the joint project ‘MOOSzucht’ aims to increase current Sphagnum productivity by 30 % through selection and breeding. Several wild provenances of Sphagnum species (suited for growing media) will be genetically characterized (SSR marker assays) to understand the relationship between and distribution of Sphagnum genotypes....

Investigation of epidemiology of soil-borne viruses in triticale with the objective of development virus resistant cultivars with high biomass yields for extraction of biogas and ethanol, sub project 2: Development of virus-resistant varieties with high biomass yields (Project)

Triticale exhibits a high yield potential and is a potential cereal for the efficiently production of biomass for the extraction of biogas and ethanol in line with using conceptions of peripheral bio energy. The production of triticale is heavy at risk by soil-borne virus in many growing areas. The plant health is a main precondition for the stable use of triticale as renewable resource. The JKI...

Collaborative project: Development of a resistance breeding method for the host pathogen system potato/ Rhizoctonia solani and the development of an application strategy for a fungal antagonist for the reduction of the soilborne and tuberborne inoculums - Subproject 2 (Project)

Quality deficiencies of potato tubers caused by Rhizoctonia solani are one of the main reasons for refusal of production charges by the processing industry. The cultivation of resistant cultivars is an efficient control strategy. Hence, the main goal of the project was to establish a test method which does allow the reliable characterization of the resistance level in potato cultivars against R....

Collaborative project: Regional renaissance of rye and rapeseed aiming at reducing problems in crop and animal production by reevaluation of rye constituents and their use for sustainable production in terms of environment, animal welfare and consumer protection. Subproject 2 (Project)

The use of rye as a robust cereal with high resistance to diseases and drought and low demands on fertilizers and pesticides, as well as rapeseed as a regional source of protein in pig feeding, offers opportunities to make modern animal nutrition concepts more climate-adapted and sustainable. The results of the project "6-R-concept" show that the use of even larger quantities of rye and rapeseed...

Altered productivity and carbon sequestration of German forests in the face of climate change: (i) model development with data sets of soil inventory (BZE) and European Level I monitoring plots and (ii) model applications on an expanded dataset of the National Forest Inventory (BWI) - WP-KS-KW. Subproject 3 (Project)

The german national forest inventory (NFI) is an important instrument for forest policy of the federal and state governments. It is also increasingly used for practice-relevant research on tree species distribution and site productivity. However, the data on soil and climate at the NFI sites are covered only unsatisfactorily. The primary objective of this research project is therefore to combine...
