Optimal winter oilseed rape fertilisation (N) through remote sensing data and quality-assured artificial intelligence (Project)

The fertilisation of winter oilseed rape is a key aspect of agricultural practice that poses both economic and environmental challenges. Precise nitrogen fertilisation can optimise yields and reduce the environmental impact at the same time. However, there are currently deficits in the precise recording of the required nitrogen quantities. The `RapSmartN` project aims to use remote sensing data...

The potential of oscillating mowing technology - making mowing economically and ecologically sustainable (Project)

The ecological quality of grassland has deteriorated massively in recent decades, largely due to intensification of use. There has been an increase in oscillating mowing technology in the maintenance of nature conservation areas and green infrastructure. Due to changes in the demands on agriculture and for economic reasons, oscillating mowing technology could also become significantly more...

Sustainability certificates to increase added value in agriculture (Project)

In order to counteract negative effects such as global warming, species loss and water scarcity, nature must be protected and regenerated as the most important basis for life. Organic farming can make a significant positive contribution in all areas of the EU taxonomy (climate protection, adaptation to climate change, sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources, circular economy,...

KI-supported detection and selective removal of infested potato plants (Project)

Concept development In this project, an autonomous vehicle with built-in tools is being developed that recognizes all virus, bacterial and fungal diseases in potatoes known in Europe by their symptoms and immediately removes the infected plants in accordance with the seed potato regulation. The greatest added value oft he project lies in replacing and supporting the dwindling number of trained...

Economic considerations of regenerative management measures (Project)

While previous studies on regenerative agriculture mainly looked at ecological and soil biological aspects, this project aims to survey practical and economic parameters. For example, the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides is not only beneficial in terms of the environment and biodiversity protection, but also contributes to the economic success of the farm. A Bavaria-wide selection of...

Development of healthy foods using a mobile field drying system with microwave technology (Project)

In agricultural production, many food products are generated that have so far only been classified as B- or C-grade and thus could not enter the value chain. This includes, for example, vegetable and fruit products. The solution approach came from microwave technology, which is patented worldwide. This technology enables the production of vegetable chips that not only taste excellent but are also...

Recording of indicator species with AI in grassland (Project)

The aim of the project is the automatic recording of indicator species in grassland using artificial intelligence and the automatic generation of applications and data collection forms. A comprehensive database for farmers and their agricultural land in Kempten and the surrounding area will result. This database will contain detailed information on the indicator species found on the grassland. If...

HopFly - Production of hop larvae as animal feed (Project)

The Hallertau hop-growing region is the largest contiguous hop-growing area in the world. The farms in the Hallertau are highly specialized hop-growing operations and produce over 30 hop varieties that are exported to over 100 countries. Nevertheless, the number of hop farms is decreasing year on year. The dependence on the market is very high and many hop growers are looking to diversify their...

Sustainable water cycle network for irrigation of starch potato (Project)

A lack of water due to increasingly dry periods leads to yield losses in starch potatoes and jeopardizes the future of starch production in Bavaria. Current irrigation concepts lower the groundwater level. Alternative water sources are not used due to legal uncertainties. The implementation of a water association is also opaque, which deters many farms. The aim of this project is the acquisition...

Regionally refined by-products for overnight stays (Project)

When growing field crops, by-products are produced which have so far low added value or offer low opportunity for profitable use, such as paludi cultures on renaturalized moorland areas. At the same time, there is great potential for agriculture along Bavarian long-distance hiking trails by developing huts that can be built 100% sustainably and cost-effectively on farms. These could thus offer a...
