• Information event of the BÖLN project BAKWERT "Evaluation and acceptance of heterogeneous wheat populations in organic value chains".
• For all interested parties from practice and consultancy in agriculture, bakery & Milling
• Practice partners:inside share and discuss their experiences with heterogeneous wheat populations.

Heterogeneous wheat populations have the potential to deliver stable yields and good baking properties under increasingly uncertain conditions due to their genetic diversity. In the BÖLN project BAKWERT ("Evaluation and acceptance of heterogeneous wheat populations in organic value chains" FKZ 2819OE033), scientists and practitioners have been researching and testing the potential of this innovative breeding approach for the organic food industry hand in hand since July 2020. Together with the University of Kassel, the KÖLBW-LTZ and the professional association Die Freien Bäcker e.V., the BAKWERT partners from agriculture, milling and baking produce, process and market two different wheat populations - to date with great success.
With the "Open Project Day" on 17.09.2021 (9:00-11:00), we want to offer all interested parties insights into the project and the first results of our work in the field, in the mill and in the bakery. In an online event of about 2 hours, practitioners will inform and report about their experiences with the heterogeneous wheat populations. Guests from breeding and marketing will explain what is behind the term "heterogeneous wheat populations" and what we can expect from the material. The event will offer plenty of room for questions and in-depth discussions moderated by the BAKWERT team.
A short registration by e-mail is requested(bakwert[at]uni-kassel[dot]de)- please send your name and contact details by 13.9. at the latest.
