Entwicklung eines innovativen Produktionsverfahrens für die Herstellung von Wurstwaren ohne Verwendung von Zusatzstoffen
(2023)
Das Ziel der vorliegenden wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen ist die Entwicklung von Produktionsverfahren für Brüh- und Frischwurst ohne die Verwendung von Nitritpökelsalz und anderen Zusatzstoffen, die mittels Angaben von E-Nummern deklariert werden müssen. Am Beispiel von Bio-Lyoner in Dosen und Bio-Edelsalami wurden im Rahmen eines F&E-Vorhabens, welches unter Praxisbedingungen bei der Bäuerlichen Erzeugergemeinschaft Schwäbisch Hall (BESH) durchgeführt wurde, innovative Produktionsverfahren entwickelt und auf ihre ...

Plant growth, water quality, carbon and nutrient flows in rural-urban cropping systems of Bengaluru, India
(2024)
The global urban population is expected to reach 5.2 billion by 2030 and by mid-2023 approximately 4.6 billion out of more than 8 billion population were living in towns or cities. This represents approximately 57% of the total global population and is set to reach 60% by 2030. India’s urban population is expected to reach 607 million by 2030 and by mid-2030 40% of the total population will be living in urban areas. Growing urban population has multi-sectoral and dimensional implications in the rural, peri-urban, and ...
Dissertation
Evaluation of efficacy of homeopathic and antibiotic treatment in scientific research and practice with focus on bovine mastitis
(2024)
The use of homeopathy and antibiotics in treatment have the same goal: to cure a diseased individual. The first choice should be the most effective treatment and only a repeated treatment success will justify its use. If the chosen treatment is not effective, unnecessary suffering of diseased animals, spreading of disease or chronification of mastitis will be the result. Additionally, in case of antibiotic use, an ineffective use will select and promote the prevalence of multi-resistant bacteria in the environment, ...

Fostering sustainable consumption through communication: Consumers’ appreciation of biodiversity-friendly pasture-based cattle husbandry
(2024-01)
Considering dramatic environmental changes, there is an evident necessity of a transition to more sustainable animal production that caters to societal demand for ethical production and consumption. The slow but steady shift in consumer demand for animal-friendly, environmentally, and socially re-sponsible animal products has been well documented over the past years. The overarching goal of this dissertation is to provide insights regarding consumer perceptions, acceptance, preferences and com-munication of ...

New Approaches for the Quantification of Metabolic and Economic Trade-Offs Related to the Health and Longevity of Individual Dairy Cows
(2024)
Background: In dairy cows, negative associations between the genetic merit for milk yield and fitness traits as well as a lack of success in lowering the prevalence of production diseases have been noticed over the past 30 years across different production methods, herd sizes and countries. On the other hand, individual farms and individual cows within a farm succeed in simultaneously achieving high performance, low prevalence and high profitability, while others cannot cope with these challenges. Differences in milk ...

Drivers for Fostering Agroforestry Systems in Temperate and Mediterranean Climates: Past, Present, and Future
(2024)
Traditional multifunctional agroforestry landscapes provide not only food but also support biodiversity and provide a multitude of ecosystem services. However, such landscapes have been frequently lost in the last decades. Given the multiple global challenges that have emerged from an industrial model of agriculture, agroforestry as a concept based on multifunctionality is increasingly regarded as key for sustainable food production systems of the future. To guide future land management and policies, past land-use ...

Analysis of agricultural landscape transformation and cropping system diversification in southern Myanmar
(2023)
Myanmar's forests are rich in biodiversity and have significant potential for carbon reduction. Kyunsu Township in southern Myanmar is still covered by biodiverse tropical evergreen rainforests on the highlands and mangroves on the coastline, conserving carbon stocks. However, the expansion of croplands into these forests to meet the growing demand for food and crop income is a major driver of deforestation and loss of carbon sinks. Thus, balancing agricultural land use and natural resource conservation is vital for ...
Dissertation
Management factors influencing cow milk quality and safety in the Indian megacity of Bengaluru
(2023)
Ensuring animal welfare is a critical priority for livestock farmers in the face of urbanization. Rapid urban growth increases the demand for animal products but decreases availability of arable land around cities with negative implications for animal feed production. In urbanizing regions, livestock keepers resort to common pool resources for animal nutrition. Yet, the repercussions of urbanization on the quality of common pool feed resources, animal health, production and product safety, remain unstudied. Additionally, ...
