From April 2024, 19 joint projects of the DiP consortium began their research work.
The joint projects can be categorized thematically into three so-called “lighthouses”:
“Value chains of agricultural crops”
(grain and straw, sugar beet, pea),
“Sustainable and climate-resilient cultivation systems for the production of bio-based raw materials”
(agroforestry, hemp and superfood) and
“Value chains for special crops”
(recyclable materials from plant residues, special crops, medicinal and aromatic plants, potential analyses).
The DiP consortium also includes three junior research groups (NWG) and a project for “accompanying research”.
More than 40 partner institutions from science and industry are involved in the 19 DiP joint projects – alongside Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU), regional universities, non-university research institutions, regional companies and, in some cases, supra-regional partners.
Agricultural crops, sustainable & climate-resilient cultivation systems for the production of bio-based raw materials and special crops are being investigated here
An integral, project-accompanying measure to examine the sustainability and socio-economics of the DiP model region and the individual alliances and to evaluate the transfer, standardization and sustainability of the funded projects.
The DiP consortium also comprises three junior research groups (NWG), each of which is represented in one of the three lighthouses.
Accompanying research on the digitalization of plant-based value chains for the development of participatory and learning sustainability monitoring.
Digitization to promote the establishment of agroforestry systems at the landscape level as a contribution to the climate resilience of southern Saxony-Anhalt and the decarbonization of its chemical industry.
An AI platform for the rapid creation of biocatalytic cascades for innovative bioprocesses
Digital methods for applied precision genomics, network analysis and technology development to promote the plant-based bioeconomy.
Digitization-driven development of Saxony-Anhalt into an innovation center for pea breeding, cultivation and utilization.
Sustainably produced vegan vitamin D3 and cholesterol from Nierembergia repens.
Sustainable use of field margins for climate-resilient agroecosystems in southern Saxony-Anhalt.
Efficient fermentation and continuous digestion of straw with digitalization and automation tools
Digitally supported expansion of bioeconomic value creation from the medicinal plant St. John’s wort(Hypericum sp.).
