Greenhouse gas reduction through innovative breeding advances in alternative plant protein sources- subprojects carbon footprint and value chain analysis (Project)

The sub-projects "CO2 footprint and value chain analysis" aim to estimate climate protection potentials and investigate the socio-economic effects (benefits and costs) of plant-based protein sources as a substitute for animal sources along the value chains concerned, from the producer to processing and the consumer. In particular, the limitations and obstacles of the milk and meat substitutes...

Investigations on the analytical differentiation of organic and conventional wheat using the metabolomic approach (Project)

Organically grown wheat is exposed to higher levels of biotic and abiotic stress than conventionally grown wheat. A plant's response to biotic and abiotic stress at the molecular level often occurs through changes in secondary metabolism. Biotic stress caused by herbivores can, for example, promote the formation of aversive bitter substances. Abiotic stress can result from a lack or excess of...

Potential uses of biochar and Terra Preta in Bavarian agriculture - contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation – project phase 2 (Project)

Achieving climate protection targets requires a substantial reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the capture of atmospheric carbon dioxide. A promising, innovative technology is the pyrolysis of biomass, followed by the utilization of the biochar produced during the pyrolysis process. Biochar serves as a carbon sink, facilitating the soil carbon sequestration, enhancing soil quality, and...

Collaborative project: 'Evaluation, development and testing of the reusable packaging, the digitization/linking at the point of sale as well as a delivery and return station for the food retail trade and the conception of cleaning logistics and germ detection' - Subproject E (Project)

Reusable packaging makes an active contribution to environmental protection and the reduction of resources used. However, their use requires innovative logistics and cleaning solutions in order to be able to continue to ensure the quality of the products in the food packaging and to offer consumers the security of hygienic outer packaging. In this context, digitization technologies and processes...

Practical implementation of methods with reduced pesticide use in sugar beet production (Project)

In this project, state-of-the-art technology for reducing the use of herbicides in sugar beet production is now being applied and investigated over three project years. As part of the practical project, the Association of Bavarian Sugar Beet Growers, in cooperation with currently 21 project farms in the Bavarian Gäuboden region, is trialling the "band sprayer and mechanical hoeing" and "spot...

Algae-EPA (Project)

The focus of the research is on obtaining EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), a plant-based and sustainable omega-3 fatty acid.In collaboration with the University of Applied Sciences Bremerhaven and the company Henry Lamotte Oils from Bremen, the corresponding process chain is to be developed.For this purpose, various promising microalgae species are being studied and tested in large-scale production...

Provision of geodata for forest owners (Project)

For private users, there are major limitations and gaps in use of geodata, GIS-based land management systems and digital map services. The provision of geodata is very heterogeneous. In Bavaria, parcel data is only available for a fee. Forest management data is also not digitally recorded, processed or simply not available to forest owners. Forest management is an area-based activity. Therefore,...

Balancing greenhouse gas emissions from the forest to the consumer in south-east Upper Bavaria (Project)

The aim of the project is to improve sustainable forest management and the regional use of wood to increase climate protection effects in the south-east Upper Bavaria region. The project is also dedicated to the conversion to a sustainable development of climate-resistant and fast-growing mixed forests in the target region. The regionally achieved CO2 avoidance and storage effects of the entire...

Carbon footprint from the forest to the end consumer (Project)

The project was triggered by the requirements of the EU (Green Deal), the lack of data flow within the actors involved and the existing systems in the forest-wood (use) value chain, the volatility of the wood markets and oligopolisation, particularly in the sawmill industry. With the aim of bringing the society into a post-fossil age, it is therefore necessary to provide evidence of...
