Improving the ecological balance of fruit tree plantations through the use of a green waste-based, co-composted biochar (Project)

The cultivation of tree fruit, such as apples, plays a major role in Brandenburg. However, changes in the climate with long, dry periods of heat in summer are forcing measures to be taken to prevent serious crop failures. A lack of rainfall and increasing pest pressure from migrating insects pose challenges for fruit growers. However, some of the countermeasures lead to increased greenhouse gas...

Agroecological living labs to promote thriving and sustainable agricultural and food systems (Project)

The AllEcoSys project aims to promote sustainable and resilient agricultural systems. To this end, a network of living labs is being set up across Europe. These will facilitate the introduction of agroecological practices for soil health, biodiversity and natural pest and disease control. Through these practices, AllEcoSys aims to support agribusinesses to contribute to sustainable food...

Millet in Brandenburg - Utilisation of the crop under changing climatic conditions (Project)

The project is dedicated to the revitalisation of millet cultivation in Brandenburg under changed climatic conditions. The cultivation methods for the drought-tolerant and undemanding millet (Panicum miliaceum) are being researched and optimised. Comprehensive variety trials are being carried out with around 30 millet varieties, primarily panicum millet, in comparison with other types and related...

Feed development to reduce emissions from ruminant husbandry. (Project)

Methane emissions from ruminants contribute to global greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbate climate change. In principle, optimal feed intake, stable animal welfare and consistent animal health are crucial for sustainable and profitable animal husbandry. The development of feed supplements that can address these problems is an obvious choice. The EcoFutter project aims to address sustainability...

New materials for chromatographic applications (Project)

Chromatography is a chemical process used to separate mixtures of substances into their constituents. The principle of chromatography consists of the interaction of an analyte, i.e. a chemical or biochemical substance, with a stationary phase. The latter captures the analyte, binds it or interacts with it. Examples include ion exchange, hydrophobic interaction, size exclusion or affinity...

An automated bioprocess for cultivating the microalgae Galdieria sulphura to improve the utilisation of organic residues from aquacultures (Project)

AutoPro aims to develop an automated cultivation process for the extremophilic microalgae Galdieria sulphuraria. The aim is to recycle organic residues from the aquaculture industry, such as those from shrimp farms. AutoPro creates a process model in the form of a digital twin and enables real-time monitoring for a decentralised recycling process. Real-time monitoring is necessary to ensure a...

Development of an organic vine assortment for the Brandenburg wine region with climatically adapted dry-frost and fungus-resistant grape varieties with testing of historical vines occurring in Brandenburg. (Project)

Viticulture in Brandenburg has a long tradition. The current wine-growing area in Brandenburg covers around 33 hectares with some professional structures. The area under cultivation can still be expanded. The Vitis BB project aims to establish a climate-tolerant and modern range of grape varieties in Brandenburg. In this project, the focus is on analysing modern PiWi vines for their drought and...

Greenhouse Gas Neutral Germany: Effects on the Economy and Living Conditions in Rural Areas (Project)

The 2021 Federal Climate Change Act stipulates that Germany should become greenhouse gas neutral until 2045. The TREND:LR project analyses economic, social, and policy aspects of this transformation in rural areas. The intended transformation towards greenhouse gas neutrality influences living conditions and the economy in rural areas in various ways. The necessary interventions stand to affect...

Cascading effects of climate-induced forest conversion on zoonotic pathogens in mammals (Project)

The aspects forest conversion - wildlife community - food choice - gut microbiome - pathogen community will be assessed along the causal chain. The composition of the mammal community, intrinsic determinants (reproductive patterns, food choice, microbiome) and the pathogen community in reforestation areas will be assessed in the desired future forest communities. The focus of the investigations...

Environment-independent investigation of phenotypic characteristics linked to grapevine’s resilience towards biotic and abiotic stresses (Project)

The project aims to identify and investigate phenotypic traits that increase the resistance of vines to biotic and abiotic stressors such as grape botrytis and sunburn. The occurrence of these stressors in the field depends on the environmental conditions and the vines can therefore not be evaluated for the desired traits every year. Environment-independent high-throughput phenotyping methods...
