Agricultural use and vulnerability of small wetlands in East Africa (SWEA) (Collaborative project)
Seasonally moist or flooded lowland areas cover an estimated 228 Mio ha in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In contrast to the large wetland areas of the Lake Victoria and Okawango Basin and the Nile catchment’s area, the spring-fed valley heads of the inland valley wetlands and small mountain swamps of eastern Africa so far have received only little research attention. However, these small wetlands...

PigWise - Optimizing per-formance and welfare of fattening pigs using High Frequent Radio Identification (HF RFID) and synergistic control on individual level (Collaborative project)
The aim of the project is to develop an IT based tool that can be used to monitor performance, growth and welfare of pigs at the individual level. This tool allows detecting problems in an early stage (monitoring and decision support) and hence preventing economical losses. A broad approach will be undertaken combining an innovative individual online-monitoring system based on RFID with HF...
