QUERCUS SELECCION selects cork oak trees that have survived periods of drought and are strong cork producers. These trees are cloned using somatic embryogenesis and tested for resistance to Phytophthora cinnamomi before being propagated on a commercial scale. The goal is to establish them in areas of Cádiz, Extremadura and Madrid affected by the disease

FACTSHEET NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY Key information Functionalized nanocellulose membranes can take up nitrate and phosphate. These membranes can be put in a water treatment unit. As the membranes are biobased, degradable materials, they can after use be added to the soil, thus returning the leached nutrients back for their original purpose providing fertilizers (nutrient recycling).
This factsheet explains how bringing a team of farmer, vet, feed and farm advisors together is sharing different sources of knowledge together, making the Multi Actor Farm Health approach an effective approach to improve biosecurity on poultry farms
This factsheet presents the biosecurity audit tool Biocheck Ugent, that can give a biosecurity scoring in poultry farms to measure biosecurity level.
