Collaborative project: A mobile LED-laser-trap to rouse, attract, monitor and selectively combat herbivorous insects - subproject 2 (Project)

The project aims to develop a mobile LED-laser trap for herbivorous insects. Optical, olfactory and mechanical stimuli are used to rouse winged insects from plants, attract them to the LED-trap, and lethally damage them by a laser beam. Knowledge on light color and intensity as well as combination with odors that stimulate the flight behavior of insects and their orientation is applied in order...

Collaborative project: Functionalization of insect-based flours by extrusion processing for the applications in bakery products - subproject 2 (Project)

The FAO forecasts a doubling in the demand of animal protein by 2050 due to the growing world population. Therefore, there is already an urgent need to identify and to make new and sustainable protein sources accessible. Insects are considered as alternatives due to their high protein contents and relevant levels of micronutrients. The project aims at development of insect-based formulations with...

Collaborative project: Competence and practice research network for the further development of nutrient management in organic agriculture. Subproject 2 (Project)

With regard to nutrient management, organic farming presents a varied picture: on long-term organic arable farms, all the main nutrients are step by step declining towards the minimum, while organic vegetable farming shows nutrient imbalances and P oversupply. Moreover, there is a great deal of uncertainty in practice regarding soil analyses and their interpretation. Science understands the...

Collaborative project: Development of an intelligent Curtain-ventilation-sensor-system for optimised thermal comfort of cattle - subproject 2 (Project)

The goal is to develop an intelligent Curtain-ventilation-sensor-system for dairy cattle farming, which can be controlled with a new system control and regulation unit using a network of sensors within the stables. This way, the various functional areas as well as the micro-climatic zones within the stable environment can be systematically optimised. A new lighting technology integrated into the...

Collaborative project: New high-protein rapeseed feeds - Scaling of an innovative process concept for the processing of rapeseed for the production of sustainable feed mixtures and their use in animal nutrition - subproject C (Project)

A new, gentle process for processing rapeseed, the EthaNa-process, is to be further developed and optimized on a pilot scale. In consequence, development work will be carried out towards implementing a robust process leading to the production of sufficien amounts of rapeseed concentrate. In this way, the profitability of the EthaNa-process is evaluated and its competitiveness compared to other...

Improvement of common bunt and dwarf bunt resistance in bread wheat by systematic use of genetic variation - Landbauschule Dottenfelderhof e.V. (Project)

The aim is to increase and consolidate/stabilize the resistance to dwarf bunt and common bunt of wheat in order to enable infestation-free cultivation without prior seed dressing. in addition, a better understanding of the interaction of bunts with already known resistance genes in wheat is to be achieved through experiments with varieties that express such genes individually. Previously...

Model demonstration network to expand and improve the cultivation and utilisation of grain legumes in Germany - FiBL Deutschland e.V. (Project)

The aim of the model legume network (LeguNet) is to expand and support the cultivation, processing and utilization of grain legumes in Germany and to better match demand and supply. To this end, stakeholders from research, consulting, breeding, production, processing, trade and associations are networked in a cross-crop network of grain legumes, and model value chains and practical examples for...
