The objective is to establish the production of the microalgae Spirulina in greenhouses at two farms. To achieve the goal, the cultivation technique for spirulina is to be optimized and an efficient harvesting method is to be developed. The OG consists of four members. Novagreen Projektmanagement GmbH is responsible for the project coordination and the implementation of the scientific-technical goals, i.e the optimization of the cultivation technique and the development of an efficient harvesting method. Agrinova Projektmanagement GmbH, which produces and processes organic certified Chlorella microalgae, is responsible for the implementation of the scientific-biological targets, i.e. cultivation experiments with different Spirulina strains are to be conducted and different concepts of nutrient supply will be tested in order to optimize an organic certified fertilizer, which is already used for the cultivation of Chlorella microalgae. Furthermore, two farmers, which already produce organic certified Chlorella, are part of the OG. There, the developed concept is to be put into practice.
