Biodynamic Research Association Denmark (BRAD)

Current research projects:

Validation of the biocrystallization method

1. Validation of the biocrystallization method.
   2002-2004. The so-called Triangle project, in a cooperation with University of Kassel (coordinator) and Louis Bolk Institute. The project is aimed at introducing an ISO- certified methodology including crystallization chamber, lab procedures, visual evaluation and image analysis procedures for quantification of the pictures. Funded by several European foundations and companies.
   
   
2. Picture-developing properties of conventional and organic crops.
   2002-2003. Examining 4 crops (carrot, potato, green cabbage, pea) from a comparative trial under DARCOF, in cooperation with the agricultural university of Denmark. The overall project is dealing with the nutritional effects of conventional and organic fodder on the growth, health and fertility of rats over 4 generations.
   
   
3. Picture-developing properties of spring wheat varieties.
   2003. In cooperation with a larger organic grain breeding project, testing 12 older and modern wheat varieties. The overall research program is funded by a state research programme. The BRAD part of the project is funded by another state research programme.
   
   
4. Picture-developing properties of winter wheat varieties.
   2003. Testing of 10 old and modern wheat varieties. The project is funded by the Swedish Ekhaga foundation.
