Program in February

Bush fires, floods and drought: Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. It has a fundamental influence on life on earth, and this influence will continue to increase in the future. Prof. Dr. Volker Wulfmeyer presents the current state of research and gives an overview of the changes to be expected in the climate and biosphere.

At the Bar California Bounge in the middle of Stuttgart, over coffee, wine or beer, he explains the causes of climate change and the role of humans as the main culprits. He addresses the demands of Scientists for Future and Fridays for Future activists and explains what measures need to be taken to mitigate climate change.

Speaker: Prof. Dr. Volker Wulfmeyer

In the seminar "Marketing in the Food Industry" at the Department of Agricultural Markets, Hohenheim students dealt with the subject of climate change from a marketing perspective - and, in cooperation with the university radio station HORADS, presented their results in radio reports that will be broadcast in February. Afterwards the contributions are available for listening in the Online Courier: 88.6 MHz in the Stuttgart region or horads886.radio.de

Working meeting of the scientific and organizational heads of the six partner institutions of the European Bioeconomy University Alliance. Under the working group leadership of the University of Hohenheim, the strategic development of the EBU in the areas of teaching, research, and innovation is planned, concepts for participation in calls for funding are developed, and the organizational cooperation of the universities in the field of bioeconomy is shaped.

Cancelled!

Climate experts from the University of Hohenheim will present their research station, the Land Atmosphere Feedback Observatory (LAFO). They demonstrate in front of the audience how to measure the atmosphere with lasers and radar.

In this new, transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary EIT Food project, a tool for sustainable production planning in SME bakeries will be developed. This is based on a model created from collected production data and consumer surveys using artificial intelligence and digital twins. The tool aims to optimize the production processes in bakeries with the existing machines in a resource-saving way. Energy savings through a more efficient use of the machines due to an optimized sequence during the baking process, as well as the adapted planning of the product range based on consumer preferences leads to higher economic and ecological efficiency, i.e. lower production costs and a smaller ecological footprint. The tool also enables a reduction of food waste and thus leads to a further saving of resources in bakeries.

"Ecofruit" is the continuation of the 18 previous meetings. It aims to bring together European researchers and consultants working on topics related to organic fruit growing. “Ecofruit” gives an opportunity to communicate and discuss latest results connected with organic fruit growing with regard to the improvement of the production system.

Postponed - new date will be announced in advance.

Panel discussion with representatives from Fridays For Future, Scientists For Future, and from politics.
