FAEN 2 - Sustainable production of animal food in high density areas of animal husbandry in Lower Saxony. (Collaborative project)

The aim of the project should be to develop a new model for the production of animal food in Lower Saxony. The following elements could be the subject of discussion model that takes into account balanced both the economic and the ecological and social aspects of sustainability.

Alternative methods - Collaborative project: Reduction of animal testing to establish risk of injury on fish caused by turbine passage through the use of robotic surrogates, computational fluid mechanics and predictive modeling. Subproject C (Project)

The objective of the project is to reduce the use of live fish experiments in the evaluation of injuries caused by passage through turbines and other descent corridors in installations. This is done by complementing (and in the longer term replacing) those experiments with partly-autonomous robotic systems and numerical simulations: Electronic fish surrogates will be outfitted with custom...

Collaborative project: Combining innovative technologies and decision support tools to reduce weed seed input into the soil and increasing the efficiency of subsoiling to reduce weed density and optimise resistance management – Subproject C (Project)

The aim is to establish alternative weed control measures with a focus on reducing soil weed seed potential. Using the example of the two weed species of importance in many crop species, blackgrass and ryegrass. The development of a forecasting tool ('SIMDORMA') for the optimal timing of stubble cultivation, taking dormancy into account, can significantly increase the effect of partial fallow...

Collaborative project: Electronic towing bar for agricultural machines with surroundings sensor system and adoption of geo-referenced information – Subproject 1 (Project)

The objective of this project is a further development of the electronic tow-bar system for agricultural machines by the same research consortium, so that the safety and automation level of the existing system will be enhanced with respect to driverless farming. Risks, which are disclosed in the existing experimental vehicles, will be reduced considerably with the aid of perception sensors and...

Collaborative project: Development of a rapid chlorophyll fluorescence imaging-based early-detection method of mildew-resistant lettuce lines – Subproject 1 (Project)

In this project, an effective non-invasive method for rapid and early detection and evaluation of downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) resistance in young lettuce plants will be developed. Photosynthetic activity is a proven indicator for early detection of impairment of plants. Especially chlorophyll fluorescence imaging (CFI) is well suited for non-invasive measurement of photosynthetic efficiency....
