ECOBREED has published a new series of practice abstracts. A practice abstract is a summary that describes an important piece of information/recommendation end users can use in their daily practice.

The practice abstracts bring new solutions and practical recommendations on the following topics:

• How does technology bridge the high throughput phenotyping and genotyping gap in crops.
• Resistance of potato cultivars to late blight (Phytophthora infestans).
• Identifying cover crops (e.g. rye, pea, oat) for soybean organic production.
• Production of organic seeds: problems, challenges, and requirements.
• Soybean chilling stress.
• Allelopathy for weed management.
• Protein yield – criteria and metrics for choice of wheat varieties.
• Buckwheat and how to grow it.
• Harvesting and storage of buckwheat.
• Seed dressings against seed-borne diseases in organic farming.

We invite you to have a look at the practical recommendations for organic farming from our ECOBREED researchers and experts!
