Rapeseed for organic farming - use of evolutionary selection for adaptation to improve resource efficiency and climate resilience - Universität Bonn (Project)

Rapeseed provides multi-purpose edible oil and protein with high nutritional quality and is a very important energy crop in the current mix of renewable resources. In addition to a high oil content of up to 45%, rapeseed also has a high protein content (up to 25%, similar to chickpea), and is expected to play an increasingly important role in protein supply and food security in the future. By...

Strategies for the development of a breeding program under organic conditions for conventional pig breeding lines - Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen (Project)

Over the last 20 years, the demand for organically produced food in Germany has risen continuously. In pig farming, the proportion of organically reared animals is comparatively low. In addition to personal conviction, economic motives are the main factor motivating pig producers to transform their farms to an organic production. In addition to other factors (e.g. husbandry techniques), the...

IDENTIFICATION OF RISK FACTORS AND ESTABLISHMENT OF BIOINDICATORS FOR PIGLET MORTALITY UNDER ORGANIC HUSBANDRY CONDITIONS IN DIFFERENT PIG GENOTYPES (Project)

In BioFeSt, approaches for reducing piglet losses in organic farms are being developed by analyzing relationships between biomarkers for allostatic load, i.e. the cumulative effects of chronic stress on piglet mortality, and identifying risk factors. To this end, biomarkers (cortisol, cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, creatinine and glucose) are...

Rapeseed for organic farming - use of adapted evolutionary rhizomes to improve resource efficiency and climate adaptation - JKI (Project)

Rapeseed provides a nutritionally high-quality edible oil and protein for many uses and is a very important energy crop in the current energy mix of renewable raw materials. In addition to its high oil content of up to 45%, rapeseed also has a similarly high protein content to chickpeas of up to 25% and will play a more important role in protein supply and food security in the future. By...

Harvesting and use of protein-rich alfalfa products in organic poultry feeding (Project)

In organic poultry nutrition, the supply of essential amino acids to meet the requirements of the animals represents a central challenge. In particular, the supply of sulphur-containing amino acids, especially methionine, is difficult to implement. Within the framework of the 'Grünlegum' project, a high potential for the use of Alfalfa products as protein feed in the feeding of non-ruminants was...

Suckling piglet losses in organic pig farming: status quo and practice-based approaches towards reduction - Öko-BeratungsGesellschaft mbH (Project)

The high mortality rate of piglets can be identified as a problem in organic pig farming. However, piglet losses and their causes are as variable as the conditions on organic operating farms themselves. The various causes and risk factors for increased piglet mortality have been intensively researched in the last decade. Specific recommendations for organic farming have already been derived from...
