collaborative project: Design, construction and test of a trough for nuzzling to facilitate species-appropriate feeding of litterless pigs – Subproject 2 (Project)

In this project, an innovative toy for pigs was developed. In production systems without the practicability for the use of bedding materials a species-appropriate burrowing behavior is not possible. With the floor-mounted, spring-loaded cone of food-safe polyurethane the animals can act out their natural needs for exploration and rooting. By the special arrangement of the rooting cones the...

Collaborative project: Development of a new automatic measurement method for securing a complete bleeding of slaugther pigs – Subproject 2 (Project)

The aim of the project was the development of an automated control system to detect the bleeding rate in each individual pig using hollow knife technique . Within the project, an integrated control system based on infrared sensor technology has been developed. The system measures the heating of the surface of the individual blood-collecting-tank by inflowing blood. From gathered data the slope is...

Collaborative project: Developement of an innovative approach to adapt the application dose of plant protection products to the conditions in fruit growing – Subproject 2 (Project)

As part of a three year project, a model for reducing the amount of plant protection product (PPP) has been studied. The model calculates the amount of PPP which has to be applied in regard to equipment and orchard-specific parameters. An assessment on the biological effectiveness of the dose-model had been carried out in five orchards in the region “Niederelbe”. Currently, a widespread use...

Development of basic data for prediction of population dynamics and risk of attack of spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) on fruit and grape, Subproject 2 (Project)

The main objective is to describe the development cycle of the spotted wind drosophila Drosophila suzukii from egg to adult flies. The influence of the main meteorological factors (temperature, rel. humidity, precipitation, wind speed, etc.) as well as the influence on reproductive biology and behavior affected by the habitat plants, host plants and fruits should be investigated and described...

Collaborative project: Development of a climate-based prognosis model to predict the risk of Nosema-infection of the honey bee - subproject 2 (Project)

Aim of the project is the creation of a model for the correlation of climatic factors with prevalence and virulence data of Nosema spp. infections in German honey bees which shall be used for the prediction of the risk of bees of becoming infected with Nosemosis. The prevalence of Nosema apis and N. ceranae in selected bee hives is monitored over the year, and data from the last decade, provided...

Collaborative project: Energy Cockpit for Dairies – Automatic Energy Data Acquisition and Monitoring for Milk Processing Establishments – Subproject 2 (Project)

The project’s goal is to develop an energy cockpit for milk processing establishments. The finalized package of products and services satisfies the requirements to bring such a system into service: analysis of power distribution, selcetion of measuring points and sensors, their installation, automatic data acquisition, development of algorithms for evaluation, output to a web based monitoring...

Collaborative project: Natural substances against bird damage - Development of a biological repellent applied as seed treatment - Subproject 2 (Project)

In this project a biological repellent based on plant substances against birds is intended to be developed. The goal of the project is to treat corn in a way that damage on seeds and seedlings by birds can be avoided. Furthermore baits against for example rodents could be treated with the repellent to avoid accidental poisoning of birds. Several candidate plants will be screened for repellent...
