Project Title

Hazelnut production by means of an innovative cultivation system/ creating the foundation for an innovative control of the C. nucum

Project description

  • Development and testing of an innovative cultivation system (tree training practice as a "spindle” (pyramidal shape)) and suitable hazelnut varieties for Thuringia (assessment of the varieties with regard to their development and initial yields).
  • Accompanying the development of the infestation of the nut weevil Curculio nucum with a basic investigation to check whether decision-making aids (prediction model) for innovative approaches to regulating the insect can be designed for cultivation practice.
  • Establishing suitable harvest and storage methods.
  • Observation of the tree development and reacting to emerging challenges (pests, diseases, nutrients, weather influences).
  • Literature research, expert surveys and excursions thematically appropriate to the challenges that have arisen and relevant topics.
  • Investigation of the influence of the weather and the location on nutritionally important ingredients.
  • Preparations for the investigation of the influence of chicken farming within the hazelnut plants (symbiotic effects).
