Sustainable Land Management in the North German lowlands under changing environmental and social framework conditions (NaLaMa-nT) (Collaborative project)
Sustainable land management cannot longer be considered and developed without taking influences of global change into account. Current changes of both, markets (resources, goods and finances) and climate, are challenges, strongly influencing opportunities and risks for forestry and agriculture. Apart from that, structural changes within the regions are of great importance. They ask for adaptation...

PGR Secure: Novel characterization of crop wild relative and landrace resources as a basis for improved crop breeding (Collaborative project)
The goal of agrobiodiversity conservation, unlike other forms of conservation, is not only the conservation of species and intra-specific genetic diversity related to agriculture, but also to promote its sustainable use in facilitating agricultural production. Although significant progress has been made in the conservation and management of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture (PGRFA)...

GlobE - African-German partnership to enhance resource use efficiency in urban and peri-urban agriculture for improved food security in West African cities (UrbanFood-Plus) (Collaborative project)
African food security not only depends on productivity increases in marginal rural areas, but also on a more efficient use of niche environments such as (peri-)urban zones where due to close market linkages between producers and consumers innovations are more easily adopted. There urban and peri-urban agriculture (UPA) covers 5% to 36% of a city’s total food supply and up to 90% of its fresh...

Whey2Food - Enhanced protein fractionation from protein sources for their use in special food applications (Collaborative project)
Whey is a by-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and is considered a promising raw material for various commercial applications due to its high-value components (e.g. proteins) and its large availability. Around 81 million tons of liquid whey was produced by the approximately 150,000 European cheesemakers in EU-27 in 2011. However, according to the European Whey Products Association...

C-IPM: Coordinated Integrated Pest Management in Europe (Collaborative project)
C-IPM will provide an overall picture of ongoing and desired R&D efforts and of the resources available for IPM implementation. It will propose a common research agenda on IPM and on sustainable solutions in the context of minor uses. It will rapidly generate European-level added value by sharing outputs of ongoing national and regional research, and by disseminating R&D methods, experience and...

Flowering time control: from natural variation to crop improvement - Phase 1 (Collaborative project)
During evolution plants have co-ordinated the seasonal timing of flowering and reproduction with the prevailing environmental conditions. With the onset of flowering plants undergo the transition from vegetative growth to reproductive development. In the past years we have gained increasing knowledge of flowering time (FTi) regulation in model species such as Arabidopsis. Conservation of major...
