Climate change brings new crops to Flanders
New crops are appearing in Flanders.
Plant phenotyping covers the description and characterization of such complex plant traits using non-destructive image analysis-based tools in the context of plant research and crop breeding.
EMPHASIS-Belgium - “phenotyping the future crops”
This project therefore posed an essential question with a phytosanitary impact: what can be done in the introduction of unprecedented/new diseases when these crops are grown in the vicinity of the ' traditional ' commercial crops?
Phytosanitary risks of newly introduced crops
Main research questionHow can arable farmers, poultry farmers and the local animal feed industry in Flanders work with crops mixed with legumes, as an alternative source of protein for poultry? This question is answered in a chain perspective, within the OPTIPLUIM project. The aim is to look at cultivation, processing and use.
Optimal cultivation of protein crops for poultry feeding
Main research questionHorseradish (Armoracia rusticana), angelica (Angelica archangelica) and lovage (Levisticum officinale) are three aromatic root crops. Both the fresh plant material and the extracted aromas of these crops can be incorporated into numerous (non)-food applications.
Aroma-roots : aromatic root crops for the bio-economy
Main research questionWhiteflies such as Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci are devastating, cosmopolitan pests on greenhouse crops such as tomato or cucumber and cause annual yield losses of more than 1 billion euro worldwide.
Assessing the risk of whitefly transmitted viruses for Belgian crops
New online tool for farmers aims to bundle crop information from 200 crops.
With this initiative, the 10 project partners aim to unlock all available info of 200 bioeconomy crops in one user-friendly tool.
