Crop rotations with crops requiring short growing periods (Project)

After harvest of profitable winter crops used as biogas substrate like whole plant silage of cereals or fodder mixtures like clover grass there is a gap until the next main crop. Gainful crops like maize and sorghum do not exhaust their potential when sown after middle of June due to their insufficient silage maturity. But this gap could be filled by species having a faster growth. Central...

Cooperative test Bavaria concerning the use of herb-rich sowings as biogas substrate (phase II) (Project)

Perennial mixtures of wild species offer long flowering and permanent soil coverage. The mixtures can be used as biogas substrate reserve but data basis for Bavarian site conditions is still low. Thus, the project aims to evaluate the multi-year biomass and methane yields of the wild species mixture for Bavarian site conditions. The focus is on the comparison of the mixture crop in its 4th and...

Development of Inoculation methods for testing the efficacy against fusaria on mais of seed treatment agents and methods (Project)

The aim is to develop methods for artificial inocultion of maize seeds. Suitable strains of Fusarium must be selected. The efficacy trials will be performed in seed trays under controlled conditions. The seed treatments to be tested will be biological agents and electron treatment.

Permanent crops and their cultivation suitability in Bavaria (Project)

The cultivation of perennial energy plants is an ecological and labour efficient alternative to common annual crops. Perennial crops like Cup Plant, Sida, Tall Wheatgrass, Switch grass and Miscanthus have a high yield potential according to literature and the few trials that exist. But biomass production depends a lot on the specific site conditions. The aim of this project is to evaluate the...
