CrOptions: An evaluation of the yield potential and value of spring barley as a feed crop in Ireland.
Dundalk Institute of Technology invite applications for the following position. CrOptions. An evaluation of the yield potential and value of spring barley as a feed crop in Ireland. Read more
INTEGRITY: Integrated crop- ruminant livestock systems as a strategy to increase nutrient circularity in beef cattle production systems
Background. Agriculture is the single largest contributor (~30%) to overall Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in Ireland accounting for the majority of methane emissions produced primarily due to ruminant livestock production. Read more
Environmental regulation of crop productivity
Crop productivity is highly dependent on environmental conditions. Understanding the mechanisms by which plants respond to environmental signals will therefore allow us to select for climate resilient crops and improve global food security. Read more
Infrared image sensors for space and Solar System exploration
The School of Physical Sciences, STEM Faculty, The Open University invites applications for a full-time PhD studentship dedicated to the characterisation and development of new generation of medium wave infrared (MWIR) image sensors for space applications. Read more
CO2 perception and responses in plants – building new connections
Land plants must constantly adjust and adapt to their environment. Environmental fluctuations often culminate in stress for plant growth, disrupt carbon and water balance, and affect crop productivity and fresh-water use. Read more
MSc by Research: Do any Bacillus subtilis strains have an inhibitory effect on phytophthora pathogens and potential as a future biocontrol?
The world needs a sustainable and secure supply of fresh and affordable food. Increased demand for berries is driven by their popularity and consumer belief in their healthful properties. Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Multi-camera machine vision of a whole cattle herd for assessing the impact of interventions for environmental sustainability
While dairy farming is receiving increasingly strong competition from plant-based alternatives, it remains an important agricultural option where grass is the most viable crop, such as Bristol’s civic region as well as a large slice of world landmass. Read more
Inga agroforestry to enhance soil regeneration and carbon sequestration in degraded tropical soils.
Extensive tracts of land in the tropics have already been cleared of forest, used first to grow crops and then as pasture. The removal of the tropical forest severely diminishes the capacity of the ecosystem to retain nutrients and carbon in the soil. Read more
