Influence of seed strength and sowing time on yield, quality and weed infestation of grain
In organic grain cultivation - as in conventional cultivation - there is a need to produce a high-quality harvest product that is available either as seed, consumer grain or feed grain.
Decommissioning of arable land and the influence of fallow land on weeds and the soil
The aim of this project was to examine the effects of different fallow vegetation with regard to weed infestation and the influence on the soil at different locations.
Studies of various potato varieties with regard to their suitability for storage
Even if potatoes are a valuable food from the perspective of nutrition experts, their per capita consumption is declining.
Cultural value of arable crops
Agriculture in the Alpine region used to be an important branch of business, but over the decades it has increasingly fallen victim to economic considerations.
Testing and assessing the eating quality of different types of potatoes
Per capita consumption of potatoes has declined sharply in recent decades due to changing eating habits.
Investigations of Rhizoctonia solani in potatoes depending on the time of sowing
The fungus Rhizoctonia solani is an important pest of potatoes. It causes yield losses through emergence damage in the form of single or few shoots, foot disease and failures as well as reductions in quality...
Selenium content and selected ingredients of spelled
The cultivation of spelled (Triticum spelta) has increased in Austria, southern Germany and South Tyrol since its rediscovery around 10 to 15 years ago.
Influence of physiological maturity, variety and location of silage maize
The importance of silage maize as an important feed that farmers can produce themselves is undisputed. In addition, silage maize is readily eaten by both dairy and fattening cattle.
Influence of reduced seed strength on yield and grain quality
In the course of cost-saving measures, the topic of reducing inputs has been discussed again and again in recent years, and in particular a significant reduction in the seed rate for grain.
Influence of ration design, category and genetics on weaned young cattle
A key aim of the project is to support farmers as well as cattle producer associations (Steirisches Rind producer association, Austrian cattle exchange, etc.) and advisors in the production of...
