WASCAL (West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use) Research Program (Collaborative project)

The WASCAL Core Research Program brings together a German research consortium, coordinated by the Center for Development Research (ZEF), University of Bonn, and an equivalent consortium on the West African side that has designed a joint research program on adapted land use and management of land under changing climatic conditions. The research program focuses on: improving the adaptive capacity...

COBRA - Coordinating Organic plant BReeding Activities for Diversity (Collaborative project)

Organic plant production is currently challenged by several pressure factors. Along with perennial problems such as weed control, climate change is threatening to affect crop production through increasing weather variability. Plant breeding is a crucial factor in creating organic crop production systems that can better cope with such interacting stresses and producers need crop varieties with a)...

IQ-FRESHLABEL - Developing novel intelligent labels for chilled and frozen food products, promoting the influence of smart labels application on waste reduction, food quality and safety in the European supply chains (Collaborative project)

IQ-FRSHLABEL will develop two novel innovative intelligent labels. One will monitor the time and temperature of frozen products, the other also the oxygen content in modified atmosphere packed fresh food. Controlling post production life cycle of food is important element of food supply chain. Improper handling of product during transport, storage and in households results in quality defects,...

The intelligent container (Collaborative project)

The project consortium developes new approaches and technologies for innovative logistic processes in our project since 2010. The focuses of the applications are transports of foods which are sensitive to ambience parameter. The new approaches have the goal to reduce losses caused by spoilage of transported goods. This will lead to additional values for the affected companies, generate more food...

FarmFUSE: Fusion of multi-source and multi-sensor information on soil and crop for optimised crop production system (Collaborative project)

The inherited spatial and temporal variation of soil properties and nutrients is critical for determining VR strategies for crop production, but is typically derived from soil samples data collected at insufficient resolution (typically 1 soil sample per 1-3 ha) to match the underlying variation within the fields. These traditional methods of soil analyses are expensive, time consuming and allow...

Healthy Nutrition and Sustainable Food Production (Collaborative project)

The main goals of the National Research Programme 'Healthy Nutrition and Sustainable Food Production' (NRP 69) are to provide a practical base of knowledge about how healthy eating can be promoted in Switzerland, how enough high quality and safe food can be made available at affordable prices and with an optimal resource management and environmental impact. The conclusions of this NRP will thus...
