751-4104-00LAlternative CropsW2 KP2VA. Walter, K. Berger Büter
KurzbeschreibungFew crops dominate the crop rotations worldwide. Following the goal of an increased agricultural biodiversity, species such as buckwheat but also medicinal plants might become more important in future. The biology, physiology, stress tolerance and central aspects of the value-added chain of the above-mentioned and of other alternative crops will be depicted.
LernzielIm Verlauf des Kurses lernen die Studierenden, das Potential verschiedenster Kulturpflanzenarten im Vergleich zu den Hauptkulturarten auf der Basis ihrer biologischen und agronomischen Eigenschaften zu beurteilen. Jeder Studierende nimmt die Beurteilung einer von ihm oder ihr selbst ausgewählten alternativen Kulturart vor und stellt diese den anderen Kursteilnehmern dar. Dabei werden Fachartikel sowie Einträge in Wikipedia zu Hilfe gezogen und selbst bearbeitet.
