Factsheet DSS large Narcissus fly

This model Large Narcissus Fly Model predicts the timing of adult emergence, egg laying and egg hatching, enabling users to undertake targeted monitoring and/or mitigating actions to reduce the risk of damage to the crop. A series of development rate equations form the basis of the simulation model and are linked together in a program. The model simulates the development of cohorts of 500 individuals through adult emergence, egg laying and hatching. The model uses soil temperatures or air temperatures depending on the stage of development. As multiple cohorts progress simultaneously, adult emergence, egg laying and/or egg hatching can occur at the same time. The start date for the model is 1st February, as this is often the coldest period in the year. The DSS shows information about the development of the large Narcissus fly during the growing season. The Large Narcissus Fly forecast requires hourly soil temperatures at a depth of approximately 6 cm and hourly air temperatures. This model requires historic data to provide risk forecasts. At present, suitable historic data is only available for a limited number of locations; please select ‘Edit Parameters’ and select the most appropriate location. The DSS Large Narcissus Fly Model was developed at University of Warwick (Warwick Crop Centre) and was adapted from work carried out in the UK.

A Bio-inspired Multilayer Drainage System

Document

Agricultural run-off and subsurface drainage tiles transport a significant amount of nitrogen and phosphorus leached after fertilization. alchemia-nova GmbH in collaboration with University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna developed two multi-layer vertical filter systems to address the agricultural run-off issue, which has been installed on the slope of an agricultural field in Mistelbach, Austria. While another multi-layer addressing subsurface drainage water is implemented in Gleisdorf, Austria. The goal is to develop a drainage filter system to retain water and nutrients. Both multi-layer filter systems contain biochar and other substrates with adsorption properties of nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus). The filter system can be of practical use if an excess of nutrients being washed out is of concern in the fields of the practitioner by keeping the surrounding waters clean. This approach may result in economic value by re-using the saturated biochar as fertilizer and improving the soil structure, thus increasing long-term soil fertility.

NANOCELLULOSE MEMBRANES FOR NUTRIENT RECOVERY

Document

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No 858735. 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).

Environmental monitoring within greenhouse crops using wireless sensors

Document

Because variables such as temperature and humidity have a profound effect on the activity of crop pests, diseases and natural enemies, the ability to monitor environmental conditions within a crop has always been important for crop protection.
