Wow, richtig spannender Artikel zum Thema Rentendebatte und eine Argumentation die mir neu war, ich aber sehr schlüssig finde.

New publication out now! @philrufin.bsky.social, Pauline Hammer et al. mapped 17M fields in Mozambique using deep learning and satellite imagery. With 78% of fields being <0.5 ha, this provides critical data for sustainable land use policies! Read more here: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

We’re excited to announce a major update to the Harmonized IACS Inventory (v1.3)! Thread below for what’s new! 👇 #IACS #GIS #OpenAccess

Just published 🌱: We dug into 16 million+ field records across Central Europe to find out what drives farmers’ crop rotation choices. Turns out past cropping, agronomic advice, and legume prices matter a lot and legumes are likely to play a much bigger role in the future👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.ag...

🦋 The Land System Group is now on Bluesky! We're excited to share some interesting insights from our research group at IAMO. Keep up to date by following us.

Using Remote Sensing and Agro-Ecosystem Modelling 🛰️🌽📈, Esther Shupel Ibrahim analyzes impacts of climate change and diseases on smallholder agriculture in Nigeria and develops strategies to support and empower smallholder farmers.

A comprehensive field- and farm-level land-use dataset from the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) is now available: doi.org/10.1038/s415... #OpenData #EUAgri #LandUse #SustainableFarming

Neue Studie zu #Glyphosat. 💥 👉 "Jeder Haushalt 🏠 trägt dazu bei, dass dieses Gift die Natur belastet." Damit ist die These, dass die hohe Belastung in Gewässern nicht nur aus der #Landwirtschaft 🚜 stammt, sondern zu großen Anteilen aus 🏘 Haushaltsabwässern, bestätigt. Bericht im DLF 📻 👇

🫧 #WirSindBUA: Die @berlinualliance.bsky.social hat wasserbezogene Risiken des Klimawandels zu einem ihrer Forschungsschwerpunkte gemacht, u. a. mit der Einstein Research Unit „CliWaC“. #HU-Prof. Dr. Tobias Krüger spricht über die bisherigen Forschungserkenntnisse 👉 www.hu-berlin.de/de/pr/wir-si...

Really cool and informative paper by Fabian Klebl and others on farmers' preferences for where to locate hedges or wildlife strips. Highly recommended (only wrinkle for me: no German case study😕). #biodiversity #agriculture www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Return of the good times: the Earth Observation Lab of @humboldtuni.bsky.social has joined Bluesky: Follow @humboldteolab.bsky.social for all things terrestrial remote sensing and geospatial at large!

Our project released one of our milestones; a harmonized database of field-level land use data for almost all countries of the EU with a temporal coverage of up to 20 years. You can find it here: zenodo.org/records/1423...

My daughter sent me this and I think it’s kind of funny/true

🚜 Wem gehört das Land? 🌾 (1/2) In unserem neuesten Policy Brief werfen Alfons Balmann, Daniel Müller und ich einen genaueren Blick auf das landwirtschaftliche Bodeneigentum in Brandenburg. Unsere Analyse zeigt: Der Boden gehört vielen – eine breite Streuung des Eigentums ist zu beobachten.

Who owns the agricultural land, and how concentrated is land ownership? Knowledge about this is minimal, although being at the center of heated debates. This motivated us to examine land ownership structures for Brandenburg in detail. Read up on our results here: doi.org/10.1007/s104...

Africa's population centers are relatively regional and dense, and will likely continue to be so. Whatever infrastructure issues they will have in the future will almost certainly be the same ones they have had for decades, only more so. (Map shows projected population centers in 2050.)

Are you interested in whether field size increases with farm size? Take a look at this preprint: doi.org/10.31220/agr... We inverted the question to see if farm sizes can be estimated using field sizes, which are more commonly known. We find a positive relationship, but high uncertainties

New study out on the relationship crop rotation diversity and landscape diversity and biophysical characteristics. Our study indicates a spatial trade-off between crop rotations and landscape diversity. Led by authors from Josepha Schiller et al. from @zalf.bsky.social doi.org/10.1007/s109...
