Indicators for biodiversity in organic and low-input farming systems (BIOBIO) (Collaborative project)

Organic and low-input farming systems have been shown to benefit farmland biodiversity although a generic indicator to assess these benefits at the European level is lacking. Therefore, BioBio, a European project, aims the selection of biodiversity indicators (e.g. butterflies, plants, etc) for assessing these benefits. The selected indicators will be tested in several case studies across Europe...

ANTIcipating the Global Onset of Novel Epidemics (ANTIGONE) (Collaborative project)

In recent years, an increased number of zoonotic viruses and bacteria have crossed the species barrier to humans and caused or threatened to cause human pandemics with high morbidity and mortality. Because of our inability to predict the emergence of these pathogens, it is difficult to take preventive measures. It is known that zoonotic pathogens need to cross barriers at the animal-human...

Food labelling to advance better education for life (FLABEL) (Collaborative project)

Nutrition labels are potentially a major instrument for enabling consumers to make healthier food choices, but current insights into how nutrition labels are used by consumers in real-world shopping situations are limited, making the science-based formulation of new labelling policies and the evaluation of existing ones difficult. The objectives of this project are to determine how food nutrition...

Expansion of soybean cultivation in Germany through breeding adaptation and agronomic optimization (Collaborative project)

By breeding of suitable species it shall be ensured that the high demand for high-quality soy can be met better from local production. Apart from growing trials with existing varieties and breeding lines, crossings and theire inspection are carried out in the project. Hereby the researchers shall investigate how an efficient breeding strategy for soybeans can be designed in terms of their...
