Assessment of genetic diversity in local breeds
(2020-06)
The present study aimed at assessing genetic diversity in selected local livestock breeds in Northern Germany, and furthermore, examining some of the indices used in describing diversity in populations. The study begun with an assessment of genetic diversity in the German Angler (RVA) and Red-and-white dual-purpose (RDN) cattle breeds. Analyses of the RVA and RDN pedigrees, consisting of 93,078 and 184,358 records, respectively, revealed a number of Red Holstein (RH) sires that were influential in these breeds. Even ...

Design of a decentralised camel milk processing plant with integration of renewable energy supply
(2020)
Der Milchsektor trägt zu ca. 4% zum Bruttoinlandsprodukt (BIP) in Kenia bei und ist der größte Teil des Agrarsektors. Kenias Kamelmilch spielt eine wichtige Rolle bei der Deckung des Ernährungs- und Wirtschaftsbedarfs in den ariden und semiariden Ländern (ASALs). Trotz dieser Bedeutung gibt es nur wenige Informationen über die Konservierungstechnologien und langlebige Milchprodukte wie Kamelmilchpulver. Außerdem zeichnen sich ASALs durch eine hohe Sonneneinstrahlung aus, die für die Konservierung von Kamelmilch genutzt ...

Engaging stakeholders in traditional food products through dissemination of knowledge and innovation based in digital platforms
(2020-11-29)
The agrofood sector has a great sectorial and business dispersion, constituting, in parallel, a relevant space of the European and national economy. In addition to the economic and social impact, the growth of the sector is also an opportunity for the development of rural areas and agriculture, particularly in view of Europe's shortages in food raw materials. The need for continuous improvement, and market developments of this sector, require that innovation processes occur. This process has been facilitated by the ...

Sustainable diets: Studies on German consumers’ intention-behavior gap
(2020-01)
Globally our practiced food systems are causing great harm to our environment including contributions to biodiversity loss, soil degradation, water pollution, and climate change, as well as to human health. Sustainable diets are crucial for solving those global diet-related problems because they are credited with a key role in the transformation of our currently practiced food systems into more sustainable ones. Increasing the practice of sustainable diets can be a starting point for initiating the needed change. ...

Challenges to ecosystem services of sustainable agriculture in West Africa
(2020)
Food security is still sub-optimal in many parts of West Africa calling for more efficient agricultural practices in mitigating food insecurity. Some of the problems faced in West African agricultural systems are bottlenecks in ruminant livestock supply, inefficiency in commercial poultry production, and loss of arthropod diversity. These issues require proper integration of farming systems, demand the closing of nutrient cycles, need diversi cation of production, and require enhancement of ecosystem services. To ...
