Climate change adaptation - education and advisory tools

Climate change adaptation - focus

Climate change is impacting agriculture! According to climate forecasts, temperatures will continue to rise, and rainfall will become less frequent and less evenly distributed. Adaptations to climate change must be carefully considered and implemented on farms with sound support. The existing close link between agricultural education, advisory services, research, and practical application is very helpful in this regard.

Providing good support to farmers

At the Federal Higher Education and Research Institute Raumberg-Gumpenstein, current climate adaptation knowledge has been compiled into an educational and consulting tool for practical application, consulting, and teaching. This tool already includes more than 30 podcasts and videos, specialist articles, and slide sets!

 

With a single mouse click, the following information is available free of charge:

  

You can find this content (professional brochure, slide sets, and in-depth information on the respective topic) directly within the individual podcasts.
The professional brochure and slide sets can also be downloaded free of charge from the download area.
All podcasts can also be listened to on current platforms under the title "Agricultural Science - Knowledge in Brief," such as on our YouTube channel .

Further education and consulting tools of the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein

Climate-friendly practices in agriculture

Summarized into the areas of arable farming, forage crops, grassland, ruminants, manure management, and energy and farm management, we present concrete implementation options for climate-friendly practices in agriculture. We describe the interrelationships, advantages, and challenges. In addition, we provide a cost assessment of the measures for the farm. You can find this information in the brochure "Climate Protection in Agriculture," which you can download free of charge as a PDF or order in print at cost. A collection of further links on this topic is also available.

 

Current research findings - materials for teaching / consulting

During our Science Days, our students visit our research sites in Gumpenstein, Trautenfels, Wels, and Lambach. Our researchers present them with basic information and current research findings , summarizing these presentations in handouts. These well-prepared handouts from our Science Days, covering all our research areas, are particularly suitable for classroom use and are available for free download and use in teaching and consulting.

 

Compilation of individual articles for teaching and research

Under the tag "Information for teaching and consulting" we have compiled pages with teaching materials.
