Returning soll biology using the Johnson-SU compost process with various application methods (Project)
On most agricultural land, the soil microbiome is weak and fungi in particular suffer under current management practices. Dr. David C. Johnson (New Mexico State University), the founder of the 'Johnson-SU compost', has shown in trials in New Mexico that this method can save a large part of the known NPK fertilisation and pesticides. Therefore it shall be test, how Johnson-SU compost promotes a...

Reg-Insekt-Öko: Regional production of sustainable chicken feed with the help of insect larvae and its application in organic farming (Project)
Soybean meal and fish meal are important protein components of animal feed, but the EU is highly dependent on imports of these meals. Farminsect has developed an automated platform that uses black soldier flies (BSF) to produce high-quality protein feeds from agricultural residues. With help of previous EIP-Agri funding, Farminsect developed and tested a regional insect fattening facility for...

regAg mentoring network - Establishment of a self-learning peer-to-peer network for practice-oriented transfer of regenerative farming methods (Project)
Currently, there are few regenerative demonstration farms in the grassland sector in Germany. The limited number invests a lot of time in research, trial and error, and training, and has little capacity to deal with the daily requests from other interested farmers. Learning and implementing regenerative methods on your own to gain a better understanding of more holistic management and key...

Mechanical control of volunteer potatoes to ensure field hygiene (Project)
Volunteer potatoes (VPs) are potato plants that appear in a crop rotation several years after the main potato cultivation in the following crops. The main source of these undesirable companion plants is tuber losses during harvest, which are not destroyed by mild winters. VPs pose a major challenge in subsequent crops in all regions of Germany. Unfortunately, current control methods (especially...

Optimization of nitrogen efficiency and soil fertility through an integrated consideration of soil nutrients in potato, wheat and sugar beet crops (Project)
Nitrogen (N) in excess originating from agricultural sources, results in nitrate leaching into ground/surface waters and airborne emissions. Measures to reduce these emissions consider a reduced N-supply and an increase in N-efficiency. From a previous EIP-Agri the potential for optimized N-efficiency in winter wheat through yield-zone-specific soil analysis and subsequent fertilization according...

Selekt-Zucht-BSF-Futter: Selection of specialized breeding lines of Black Soldier Flies for the production of animal feed from regional residuals (Project)
Black soldier fly larvae can convert a variety of agricultural byproducts into high-guality protein feed. However, not all of these residues support the growth of the larvae at an economically viable rate. In practice for many substrates the feed efficiency or growth time is so low that economic use of these substrates is not possible. Aim oft he project ist to develop a concept which clarifles...

Development of an IT and business concept for an energy management platform addressing the dairy value chain (Project)
Aim ist to design an energy management platform for the dairy value chain ('DairyChainEnergy' piatform). With the help of the platform, the following problems from the practice shall be solved: - Lack of (real-time) transparency of energy and C02 balance in the dairy value chain - Little knowledge for the farmer on how to reduce energy costs under holistic consideration of the dairy farm -...

The We-Hold-Together App as a collaborative, local ecosystem to connect agriculture and consumers in the Schwabach valley (Project)
In order to reduce dependencies on intermediaries and loss on margins, food producers are increasingly marketing directly. This is the basis for the elaboration of a so-called 'We-Hold-Together App'. The aim of the app is to expand the existing direct marketing network (for regional products of primary production) in the Schwabach Valley with aiming at increasing and securing the value added. The...

Moving Meadow (Project)
The moving meadow is a farming System that promotes nature Conservation on a large scale and at the same time uses it to increase the productivity of e.g. food in the following years. These goals are achieved by alternating Strip cultivation, with alternating 36 meter wide field Strips and 18 meter wide meadow Strips. The meadow Strips can be sown at the beginning with clover-grass seed at double...
