Nature Conservation Advisory Boards are scientific advisory bodies that assist the relevant nature conservation authorities with technical issues related to nature conservation. In Brandenburg, this role is established by the Brandenburg Nature Conservation Implementation Act, Section 35, Paragraph 1. Additional responsibilities and authorities, as well as the work of the Nature Conservation Advisory Board, are further defined by the Nature Conservation Advisory Boards Ordinance of 2004 and the Nature Conservation Advisory Boards Decree of 2005. Every county and every city independent of a county has a Nature Conservation Advisory Board for its lower nature conservation authority (UNB). At the state level, there is an advisory board that provides technical advice to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, Environment, and Consumer Protection (MLEUV).
Entwicklung eines Aktionsplans für die Zukunftsfähigkeit des landwirtschaftlich und gartenbaulichen Feldversuchswesens im Land Brandenburg
The project aims to develop an action plan for agricultural and horticultural field trials (LGFV) in Brandenburg. The goal is to make agriculture sustainable in the face of climate and economic challenges. Through the participatory involvement of research institutions, farmers, advisors, and educational institutions, concrete areas of action and measures will be developed to implement the visions of the future scenario already developed in the predecessor project “AnpaG.” The action plan is intended to strengthen cooperation and networking among stakeholders, promote the innovative capacity of the LGFV, and contribute to achieving overarching state goals, such as climate protection and biodiversity.
Klimaresiliente Anbauverfahren zur Risikooptimierung (KARO)
The goal of the project “Climate-Resilient Farming Practices for Risk Optimization – With Special Emphasis on Cropping Strategies and Their Regional Requirements” (KARO) is to further develop existing crop production systems in a region-specific manner to make them more resilient to climate change phenomena.
In collaboration with the Julius Kühn Institute, the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF), the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and Justus Liebig University Giessen, the project examines climatic, agronomic, phytosanitary, and environmental risks, as well as business and economic risks. Based on an already established network of stakeholders in three climatically distinct focus regions in northern, eastern, and southwestern Germany, potential adaptation scenarios are quantified in terms of their effects, discussed with the stakeholders, and used to derive possible optimizations for regional cropping systems. Some of these are then tested for feasibility in demonstration projects on farms and presented to facilitate knowledge transfer.
Erprobung und Anpassung von Wissenstransfer- und gruppenbezogenen Beratungskonzepten für eine nachhaltige Landwirtschaft in Brandenburg“ (AnpaG)
AnpaG – which stands for “Anpacken” (getting things done); driving the transformation of agriculture toward sustainability.
At AnpaG, we contribute to this by testing peer group counseling as a methodological approach to agricultural consulting. Through events such as field days and consultant days, we help connect Brandenburg farmers, consultants, and research staff. In addition, we are developing an → informational website about agricultural advisory services in Brandenburg, which contributes to greater visibility for advisors and their expertise.
Furthermore, the importance of field trials in Brandenburg as a central hub for knowledge transfer between research and practice was highlighted. To increase visibility, there is a need for stronger networking among institutes with affiliated experimental facilities, as well as the identification of common goals. As a first step, the current status was assessed in collaboration with stakeholders from research, practice, advisory services, education, and administration, and subsequently a shared vision for the future of agricultural and horticultural field trials in Brandenburg was formulated.
