Approaches for the assessment and remuneration of social and ecological benefits of organic agriculture at regional level (Project)

...The project pursues 3 specific objectives: (1) An improved assessment of the societal benefits of organic farming at regional level and their visualisation, (2) an appropriate remuneration of the social-ecological benefits through collective approaches on the basis of (1), and (3) to contribute to the optimisation of the provision of benefits with regional action strategies and thus to improve the sustainability of the region. ...

Future ArcTic Ecosystems (FATE): drivers of diversity and future scenarios from ethno-ecology, contemporary ecology and ancient DNA (Project)

...Building relevant scenarios requires understanding the relative roles of climate, herbivory and increased anthropogenic pressures as large-scale drivers as well as on local scales relevant to the communities.We will conduct a comprehensive inter- and transdisciplinary study using sedimentary ancient DNA, current ecological observations and anthropological investigations of indigenous peoples’ knowledge and interpretations. We will 1. use DNA of plants, mammals and fungi from sediment cores to identify local biodiversity changes and vegetation shifts over large spatial (circumarctic) and temporal (Last Glacial Maximum until today) scale.2. identify drivers of recent and historic biodiversity changes by comparing contemporary and past effects of herbivory, anthropogenic impacts and climate change on a circumarctic spatial scale and integrate them in climatic niche models to forecast future changes.3. chronicle indigenous and local knowledge (ILK) of biodiversity changes and their drivers, and of the role of societal practices/human choices in shaping and adapting to changes in four separate Arctic areas.4. build scenarios based on the outcomes of 1-3 in an iterative process with local stakeholders.Our study will bring together the perspectives of local communities and scientific data acquisition throughout the project. ...

An integrated set of novel approaches to counter the emergence and proliferation of invasive and virulent soil-borne nematodes (Project)

...To achieve this, NEM-EMERGE will address six specific Objectives: O1. To obtain an early warning system based on predictive species distribution models for range expanding and exotic RKN by pinpointing their current distribution and by modelling the near-future proliferation to prevent their spread by using a range of integrated (organic) crop measures. O2. To identify novel temperature-insensitive sources of broadspectrum crop resistance by selection of natural heat-stable alleles of the Mi-1 gene using a non-GMO approach which will prevent the breakdown of crop resistance to RKN at elevated soil temperatures. ...

Collaborative project: Biotechnical control of cherry fruit fly species (Rhagoletis cerasi and R. cingulata) considering the reduction of insecticide use – Subproject 2 (Project)

...Weekly applications of low amounts of NeemAzal baits achieved efficacies up to 100% in field cages and after optimizing the trial design 94% in a field test, with an infestation rate of 0.5%, clearly below the economic threshold. As Azadirachtin inhibits ovarian maturation and egg development it is most efficient when ingested by young females. ...

Authentication of feed - development of a spectral data base (Project)

...Against the background of various feed incidents, e.g. the dioxin affair 1999 in Belgium, which was caused by the illegal addition of transformer oil to feed material, the need for analytical methods for the authentication of feed becomes obvious. ...In addition, selected potential adulterants (e.g. mineral oil, transformer oil) and by-products (fatty acid distillates) will be analyzed. For these analyses proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and portable spectroscopic micro devices will be used. ...
