- The LuzNutz project, which is funded by German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) and has already started (1 February 2021–31 January 2024), aims to expand and improve the cultivation and exploitation of small-seeded legume lucerne in Germany.
- In the BMEL-funded digital experimental field AgriSens DEMMIN 4.0 (1 March 2020–28 February 2023), eight partner institutes are working together on practically relevant processes for utilizing remote sensing data in plant production, including for crop monitoring and demarcating low-yield areas, and designing new training modules for transfer to practice.
- The German Federal Environmental Foundation (DBU) is currently funding the PALEA project (1 May 2020–31 December 2021), which is investigating gentle extraction from algae using pulsed electric discharges and its application.
- In the related WIR! alliance Plant3 the LeguLand project, which investigates improved protein extraction from legumes, has been funded since 2022.
- The RUBIN project MaltFungiProtein (2022–2025), funded by the BMBF and to be implemented at Neubrandenburg University of Applied Sciences, is investigating how fungal proteins can be extracted fermentatively from bypass flows and used in foods.
- The German–Chinese collaborative project PlasAMR (“Development of plasma-based decontamination processes for the inactivation of multidrug-resistant microorganisms and transformation of antibiotics”) as part of a BMBF tender has already been positively reviewed by experts and will soon receive approval.
- The EU Horizon Europe project Aqua+ (“Plasma-based advanced oxidation processes for water”) with a total of 17 European partners has already been submitted, but the results of the expert review have not yet been received.
- In the European context, inclusion of the INP in the COST network PlAgri (“Plasma application for sustainable agriculture and food production”) must also be mentioned (2020–2024).
- There is currently a project that is in detailed planning for submission to the funding line: “Knowledge Transfer by Standardization” of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi). The aim is to define the constituents of plasma-treated water for a DIN SPEC and thus to specify a quality standard.
- At the institutional level, initial laboratory trials to increase diversity in cultivation (“heirloom varieties”) are being conducted in cooperation with the Association for the Conservation and Recultivation of Crops (VERN e.V.) and the Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development.
