Application of digital twins to extend the emission data of the naturally ventilated dairy cattle stables investigated in the 'EmiDaT' project (Project)

The values obtained by the KTBL-project 'EmiDaT” which are stored in a data base are going to be supplemented at the end of the project by the results of the simulations done with the digital twins. With the computational fluid dynamics program STAR-CCM+ by Siemens PLM complex fluid dynamics will be calculated with simultaneous consideration of scalar values like the expansion of ammonia. This is...

Sustainable and innovative barn construction concepts for sows and rearing piglets (Project)

The participants of the innovation network will dedicate several meetings to the task of developing impulses for future-oriented and innovative sow management. The aim of a first network meeting will be to formulate the requirements for future sow management for the three production areas 'breeding center', 'waiting area' and 'farrowing area' and to highlight concrete challenges. Especially...

Impact of specific food components on the gut microbiota (Project)

Nutrition has a tremendous impact on the gut microbiota: directly through the availability of fermentable components (e.g. fibers, polyphenolics…) and indirectly through the modulation of the physiological state of the host (e.g. immune system, gut barrier, digestive secretions). Interactions between food compounds and the microbiota are not restricted to the colon, where the majority of the...

Front-of-Pack Nutrition Labelling/Nutri-Score – nutritional evaluation and consulting for the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (Project)

The Front-of-Pack (FoP) nutrition labelling should guide consumers towards a nutritionally better choice of pre-packed foods. The development of a FoP-label was part of the coalition agreement of CDU, CSU and SPD for the 19th legislature period in Germany. Within this process, the MRI evaluated a number of different FoP labels regarding their benefits and drawbacks as well as their applicability...

Impact of food-borne microorganisms on the intestinal microbiota (Project)

Together with the food we eat, we take up lots of microorganisms even when hygienic standards are maintained. They can be contaminants (not necessarily harmful or pathogenic) or a functional part of the food itself, e.g., in fermented products. Many of them do not survive the stomach conditions but some manage to thrive in our gut. However, it is still unclear how deep these survivors do...

Development and validation of a quality assurance system for mobile NIRS systems for measuring nutrient concentrations in liquid farm manures. (Project)

Farmers and contractors expect that the mobile NIRS analysis of liquid organic fertilizers will be approved in order to fulfil the documentation requirements under the new German fertilizer ordinance and the organic fertilizer shipment regulation. This requires the development of a test procedure for NIRS sensors in use for the application of liquid fertilizers in order to be able to permanently...

Development and validation of a quality assurance system for mobile NIRS systems for measuring nutrient concentrations in liquid farm manures (Project)

The use of NIR sensors for on-the-go nutrient analysis on slurry tankers requires reliable quality assurance (QA) systems for new as well as for devices already in use. This is a requirement of the federal state authorities responsible for all aspects related to use of fertilizers in order to be able to permit the use of NIR sensors for documentation purposes within the framework of legal...

Development and validation of a quality assurance system for mobile NIRS systems for measuring nutrient concentrations in liquid farm manure (Project)

The use of NIRS sensors for mobile nutrient analysis on application equipment for liquid organic fertilizers requires quality assurance (QA) for both new and used equipment. This is a requirement of the Länder authorities responsible according to fertilizer law, in order to be able to authorize the use of NIR sensors for documentation purposes within the framework of legal regulations (e.g....
