Poplar agroforestry systems (AFS) enable climate-adapted agriculture and are also an important source of raw materials for established and new value chains in the timber industry. The focus of the project is on the furth…
-
The aim of the infrastructure project is to set up a research facility for processing fibre materials from peatland biomass into functional food packaging. The plant enables processing adapted to this novel raw material…
-
The aim of the joint project TreeDigitalTwins is to develop innovative AI methods for object recognition and automatic derivation of object parameters in discrete 4D point clouds and to test these methods using the examp…
-
Conventional agricultural use of peatlands requires their drainage and causes enormous GHG emissions, progressive peatland loss (slumping, decomposition, erosion), biodiversity losses, nutrient discharges and management …
-
In the PalFaForm project, a novel process chain for the production of moulded fibre parts from biomass of rewetted lowland moorland in agriculture will be developed. The aim is to further develop the process of thermo-me…
-
Up to now, after harvesting and the stationary extraction of the cones (as valuable plant components), hop plants have either been shredded or chopped up and mainly taken to the fields or left to degrade in an uncontroll…
-
The rewetting of organic soils is one of the most important greenhouse gas mitigation options in agriculture with the highest mitigation potential. The state of Brandenburg has 165,000 ha of peatland. In 2019, the Brand…
-
The long-term yield of agrowood crops depends largely on efficient weed control in the year of planting. The currently used methods either only allow for mechanical area maintenance between the planting rows or require a…
-
At present, 60-70% of all soils are unhealthy in Europe as a result of land management practices, pollution, intensive agriculture, urbanisation, and the effects of climate change. Due to this and other biophysical const…
