🆕 New #CRC1502 (C03) publication alert! @heikeschimmel.bsky.social Schimmel et al., (2025) trace 40 years of peatland restoration in German post-extracted bogs, showing how rewetting and vegetation recovery reduce mineral N stocks and enhance carbon stability over time. 📝 doi.org/10.1016/j.ge...

New publication in the European Review of Ag Econ: Organic cultivation and farmland prices: Does certification matter? Land transaction data shows that time and space matter: certification may be valued particularly in organic cluster regions. Valuations increase over time. s.gwdg.de/9ieqnL

New publication in Organic Agriculture: Organic and carbon farming: friends or foes? Our answer for Germany using Q methodology is: it depends. Perceived climatic benefits with additional restrictions cannot convince autonomy focused organic farmers. rdcu.be/eQeNv

Extreme weather events can be costly for German farmers, in terms of yield losses and farm efficiency 💸 Here is our most recent publication: doi.org/10.1093/erae... by @moritzhartig.bsky.social, Silke Hüttel & @stefanseifert.bsky.social @agrarunigoe.bsky.social @crc1502-detect.bsky.social

🚨 Publication Alert! 🚨 Exciting new publication from #CRC1502 – D01 by Theresa Goebel and Wolfgang Britz! This study quantifies land use and land cover under different socio-economic scenarios up to 2050 by running an integrated Computable General Equilibrium analysis. 📝 doi.org/10.1016/j.ge...

💻Check out the new publication from our #CRC1502 members Johannes Leonhardt and @ribana.bsky.social about Conformal Prediction. It has been found to give statistically valid uncertainty for ML in digital agriculture. It supports crop decisions with calibrated intervals. 📜 doi.org/10.1016/j.co...
