Collaborative project: Implementation of driven, controlled and tensile-generating soil processing tools in application units of liquid economic fertilizers - subproject 2 (Project)

"The aim of the KombiWKZ project was to use the vertical force caused by the tine tools and the machine weight to generate horizontal feed forces by driving the supporting elements. Electric drives were used to achieve high efficiency and controllability of the drive train. As a result of the project, a feasibility model was designed and built. The concept consists of strip tillage with injection...

Collaborative project: gEo-BEE - An participative information platform for protecting and promoting wild bees and honey bees – Subproject 2 (Project)

Honey bees and wild bees contribute to pollination of agricultural and fruit farming but also protect biodiversity by pollination of wild flowers. The aim of the project geobee is to combine bee-relevant information and to ease exchange of information in order to protect honey and wild bees in agriculture as well as to come to a cooperative use of farmland. The basis therefore is a bee portal for...

Collaborative project: Adaption of nozzles and sensors for gap switching - pre condition for the accurate spraying in orchards – Subproject 2 (Project)

As part of a three year project, a master plan for an optimized tree gap detection for a focused plant protection application and drift minimization in horticultural production systems should be developed. For this reason, a radial fan sprayer was equipped with a suitable combination of sensors and nozzles and a control computer. Afterward, the prototype was tested under practical conditions. The...

WASCAL (West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use). Work Package 3.2 Economic Evaluation of Farming Systems (Project)

'Economic Evaluation of Farming Systems' focuses on the climate change derived threats to the welfare of poor smallholders and rural communities: lacking alternative income sources, restricted market access, and limited assets; location of farm-households within different agro-ecological zones, which determines on one hand their cropping decisions, but also the magnitude and quality of changes in...

Collaborative project: High speed system for cost effective and flexible production of drip irrigation pipes from polymer materials (HOKOFLEX) – Subproject 2 (Project)

The use of water saving drip irrigation is hindered by high investment costs of the pipe systems. A cost reduction by 50 – 75 % is possible, if the productivity of the production machine can be doubled and both the costs of the machine and use of pipe and dripper material can be reduced. The throughput is limited by presently used laser technology to open the irrigation holes in the pipes. The...

GRK 1070 SP 2.4: Precision irrigation and fertigation technology for improving water- and fertilizer-efficiency of North China Plain production systems (Project)

Water shortage has become a major limiting factor for agricultural production in the North China Plain. Inadequate irrigation practices are causing excessive evaporation and deep percolation losses. Apart from low water efficiency, this leads to leaching of nutrients and increasing pollution of ground water and down-stream aquifers. Therefore, objective of the subproject is to design an...

Collaborative Project: Evaluation of genetic resources of potato through innovative analysis of ingredients and quality parameters of the tuber – Subproject 2 (Project)

Evaluation of potato genetic resources is fundamental for its increasing utilization in plant breeding. Within the project, a variable set of more than 200 potato genotypes including genetic resources was screened with improved and innovative analysis methods for yield and quality determining parameters relevant for potato breeding, as well as for the molecular chemical diversity of organic...
