Characterization of functional traits for sustainable and ecological use of the domestic chicken - Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute (Project)

The project ÖkoGen addresses the characterisation of six local chicken breeds and their crosses with commercial lines both broiler and layer, which are established in the associated project 'RegioHuhn'. The aim of ÖkoGen is to research the suitability of this diversity for organic farming. The seven work packages proposed here represent an extension of the testing of these genetics, which cannot...

Biotechnical control of the invasive brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys in organic fruit and vegetable production using push-pull-kill methods based on aggregation pheromones combined with kairomones - Julius Kühn - Institute (Project)

The aim of the project is to further develop biotechnical plant protection using attractants and repellents to control the brown marmorated stink bug in organic farming with a focus on horticulture. By using encapsulated volatile organic compounds in the context of a novel push-pull-kill strategy (composed of push-and-pull and attract-and-kill), species-specific control of this invasive...

Biotechnical control of the invasive brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys in organic fruit and vegetable production using push-pull-kill methods based on aggregation pheromones combined with kairomones - Technical College Bielefeld (Project)

In fruit growing and horticulture, the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys and the green rice bug, Nezara viridula are currently serious invasive pests. Both stink bugs are very polyphagous. The brown marmorated stink bug infests almost all fruits, as well as vegetables and shrubs. The aim of the project is to further develop biotechnical plant protection using attractants and...

Antago-Senecio - Integrated control of Senecio by antagonists and production technology (Project)

Ragworts (Senecio spec.) are increasing significantly in abundance, especially on extensively managed land. They contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which are highly toxic to grazing animals. This increasingly threatens the use of farm grassland as a forage base, and the toxins can also enter our food supply through the food chain. Effective control of ragworts safeguards basic forage production....

Development of value chains for regional dual-purpose chicken breeds in Baden-Wuerttemberg (Project)

To avoid the killing of male chicks from breeds of laying hens, the associations for organic farming will increase the usage of dual-purpose chicken breeds in the future. Currently, only few innovative farmers keep dual-purpose chickens in Baden-Wuerttemberg. The project ?ZweiWert? aims at creating a regional network of players to build a regional value chain for dual-purpose chickens in...

Selection and development of frost-tolerant apple and pear varieties to avoid frost injuries in organic fruit growing (Project)

Global warming has led to early flowering of apple and pear. For this reason the risk of frost injuries during flowering has increased dramatically. Meanwhile every second year is affected by frost injuries. Mostly the currently cultivated varieties are suceptible for frost damages (for example Jonagold as triploid or Topaz as early flowering genotype). Therefore the aims of the project are: 1....

Deep Farming - Innovative tools of precision agriculture in on-farm trials (Project)

The demands on land management are constantly growing, so it is necessary to increase fertilizer efficiency. For this purpose, the entire crop management from sowing to harvesting should be adapted to the potential of the soil. Precision farming tools are ideally suited for this purpose. A comprehensive introduction of precision farming technologies in practice has so far failed to materialize...
