How is it possible to retain water in the landscape in such a way that agriculture benefits from a better water supply for crops? And how can the availability of water in a catchment area in the south of Brandenburg be improved, even under the conditions of climate change?

Project activities focus on specific Chinese and German coal mining regions and best practice examples in rehabilitation and reclamation of mining sites. The aim is building a stakeholder network of both sides as a bridge for know-how exchange by workshops resulting in best practice guidelines.

We are actively countering the decline of wild bees in Lusatia with the “Bienenburgen” citizen science project: a rescue network for wild bees is to be created.

Single-tree-based functions for determining biomass, compartment-related volume and nutrient content of young red oak and common birch at the North Saxon lowlands are developed using parameters that are easy to measure.

Renewable resources and domestic resources for a bio-based, sustainable and strong economy in Brandenburg – all of this is part of bioeconomy. Turning ideas into products through communicative networking and practical establishment of value chains, that is the task and goal of the center.

PlanBirch-plus-C is a citizen science forum on Birch and climate change. This tree is known in terms of forest renewering and business. The project deals with knowledge gaps, offers a dialog with woodland actors and sensitized the public.

Inland ditches created decades ago in the lowlands of Brandenburg enable the agricultural use of formerly wet land. The water retention in the ditches must now be adapted to the changing climate conditions.

Practiced since the High Middle Ages, declining with the founding of the large forest tree nurseries from the mid-19th century, then rediscovered: forest seeding – It is considered as a particularly natural, flexible and easily feasible method of forest stand establishment for all forest owners.

A digital information and dialog forum supports the forest ownership in the administrative district Elbe-Elster.

The primary objective during machine operations in forests must be to avoid negative effects on soil structure and soil function. Hence, application of small-scale forest technology, like the mini forestry tractor Moritz Fr50 seems to be promising due to its low total weight.
