N optimised rapeseed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (Project)

The overall objectve of this project is to improve the ecological balance of rapeseed cultivation in terms of climate protection by increasing the nitrogen efficiency of winter rapeseed. To this end, direct and indirect CO2 emissions are to be substantially reduced. This makes it possible to produce both rapeseed oil and the so-called rapeseed cake or extraction meal, which serves as an essential...

Digitization of the herbarium of Herbology at the JKI (Project)

A herbarium focused on weeds was set up in the former Institute for Weed Research, which was continually expanded until the 1990s. This herbarium is accessible and can be viewed. However, it is hardly known and most potential interested parties are not on site. For this reason, the herbarium is to be digitised and made available to a broad public via the "Virtual Herbarium Germany".

Smart boar dummy for recording vital parameters in boars during sperm collection to assess health and stress tolerance (Project)

Our research project aims to develop an innovative product (smart boar dummy) and a new method for monitoring vital signs and stress indicators during semen collection from boars. During semen collection, vital parameters and stress indicators are recorded using non-invasive methods. This data is compared with the production data from the AI center, analyzed, and evaluated from a veterinary...

Standardized biotechnological separation process for gender-specific separation of sperm in cattle breeding using free-flow electrophoresis (Project)

The aim of the R&D project is to develop a highly efficient method for sex-specific separation of bovine sperm without compromising sperm quality or reducing fertility during insemination. Using specific preselection methods for donor animals and the principle of free-flow electrophoresis (FFE), the aim is to develop a standardized procedure for the optimized preparation and post-treatment of...

IoT-based real-time monitoring system for quality assurance of boar semen during transport (Project)

The development goal of the project is a novel IoT-based real-time monitoring system for optimizing the transport of boar semen based on sensor data measured during transport. A driver assistance system, which is also to be developed, will provide the courier with information relevant to adjusting their driving behavior. The innovative real-time monitoring system guarantees customers higher...

ABBA on Fire - An innovative treatment approach based on natural tailocins for fire blight control in organic pome fruit orchards (Project)

One of the most promising approaches to achieve food security and sustainable use of resources is the specific application of natural antagonists and beneficial microorganisms in agriculture. In organic farming in particular, these basic principles are already being used effectively today. Among plant-associated bacteria, there are strains that naturally produce tailocins. Similar to...

Studies on the multispectral resolution of the symptoms of barley mosaic disease (Project)

Barley yellow mosaic virus is caused by the barley yellow mosaic virus (BaYMV) and the barley mild mosaic virus (BaMMV). Typical symptoms include streak mosaic on the leaves, stunted growth, and yield loss. Diagnosis is usually made by symptom assessment and ELISA. Since the viruses are spread by the soil-borne vector Polymyxa graminis and remain infectious for a long time, affected areas are...

Development of a standardized learning process for veterinary and agricultural training objectives using the example of cattle reproduction (Project)

The aim of the SmartReproCow project was to develop a lifelike bovine model as a simulator for use in veterinary and agricultural training and further education. The simulation animal model will be used to teach practical skills in manual and ultrasound-assisted pregnancy testing and artificial insemination in cattle. The link to the integrated ultrasound imaging system makes it possible for the...
