Collaborative project: Analysis of locomotion in cattle using fluoroscopy and novel load measurement systems as a basis for modification of claw trimming methods and a sustainable optimization of species-appropriate animal husbandry - subproject 3 (Project)

The project ProKlaue developed and evaluated procedures for a sustainable improvement of husbandry conditions and optimization of claw health management in dairy cows. The overarching goal was a significant improvement of claw health in intense housing systems and the improvement of animal wellbeing. Claw biomechanics of the bovine distal limb were analyzed in ex vivo and in vivo studies using...

KULUNDA: How to prevent the next »Global Dust Bowl«? Ecological and economic strategies for sustainable land management in the Russian steppes: A potential solution to climate change. Subproject 3: Soil ecology, metabolism, agricultural economics, environment (Project)

The overarching goals of this subproject are: to lay the scientific basis for sustainable and carbon-optimized land management in the largest conversion areas in the world, located in the south Siberian/Kazakh steppes to investigate how these vulnerable agricultural ecosystems can be best adapted to climate change. Individual objectives are: to evaluate the organic carbon (OC) storage in soils...

Collaborative project: Breeding fast growing tree species of the genus Populus, Robinia and Salix for the production of renewable resources in the short rotation. Subproject 3: Evaluation and cultivation of aspen poplars as well as clone testing for abiotic resistance (Project)

Breeding of fast-growing varieties of the genus Populus, Robinia, and Salix for the production of renewable resources in short rotation coppice plantations. Main objectives are selection, genetic characterisation, testing of resistance, and hybridisation of poplars within the section Populus as well as the cultivation of plants for test plantations. Plus trees and stands of black locust will be...

Collaborative project: Development of a method for testing authenticity of grains (variety, purity of variety, geographic origin, cultivation method, unknown adulteration) by means of combination of stabile isotope analysis with different spectral product fingerprints. Subproject 3 (Project)

Checking the origin of grains, i.e., which type / variety, cultivation region or cultivation method, is important for guaranteed authentic food, which consumers increasingly appreciate. The AgrOr project consortium used an analytical ecosystem for this. A large number of samples were systematically examined with various analytical technologies such as NMR, IRMS, IR, RAMAN, LCMS in order to...

Collaborative project: Resource efficient plant protection based on a data driven multi-scale approach for the process chain: Diseases detection - decision support - demand specific fungicide application - subproject 3 (Project)

By increasing resource efficiency, agriculture can make an important contribution to increasing raw material productivity, which is anchored in the German government's sustainability strategy. In order to achieve this increase, a systemic approach for the needs-based use of fungicides for leaf diseases in winter wheat and sugar beet was researched and implemented as a prototype. Essential...

Improving the resilience of native tree species to climate change-induced stress by using of sulphur-induced resistance/tolerance (SiRT) - Subproject 3: Selection and classification of forest sites regarding the sulfur nutritional status of the trees (Project)

Near-natural commercial forest ecosystems are not only important producers of the renewable raw material "wood", but are also of great ecological importance. To enable their sustainable management even under the stressful conditions of global climate change, resilience to abiotic and biotic stressors is of central importance. Sulphur (S) plays a special role here as a macro-element. Numerous...

Collaborative project: Use of new molecular techniques for improving the breeding of bud-flowering Calluna vulgaris L. (Hull): an interdisciplinary approach for strengthening innovation and competitiveness. – Subproject 2 (Project)

Within a research cooperation between the heather breeder Heidepflanzen Peter de Winkel and the Leibniz-Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops (IGZ) a systematic breeding methodology has been developed for the specific flower type 'bud-flower' in heather (Calluna vulgaris). Extensive breeding material has been collected and a system for phenotyping and selection has been developed. Moreover,...

Collaborative project: Acoustic resonance analysis for quality detection of horticultural products – using the example of hollow white asparagus and mealy pome and stone fruit – Subproject 2 (Project)

The objective of this project is the development of an automated online sensing system for reliable and non-destructive classification of hollow white asparagus, mealy apples and woolly peaches. Specific quality determination will be realized on the basis of acoustic resonance analysis. After acquisition of acoustic fingerprints and the development of algorithms the assessment by comparing...
