Research foci

  • Analysing implications of climate change and environmental factors on agroecosystems to understand the measures needed for a resilient development and sustainable land use.
  • Evaluation of agricultural adaptation options to climate change according to bio-physical, socio-economic and institutional indicators to help farmers stabilize their food production and food security.
  • Designing insurance solutions as climate adaptation options which support a resilient agricultural development.
  • Developing agricultural forecasting approaches which provide information on crop yields within the current growing season and give recommendations for sustainable agricultural interventions by considering system boundaries.
