The Precision Livestock Farming professorship wants to facilitate smart farming and the use data for more precise operational management. The research group also looks to other industries for inspiration.
The Business Models for Regenerative Agriculture professorship focuses on how new opportunities can arise for nature-inclusive business operators in an alternative interaction between farmers, society and government. It is also looking at how a business model with sufficient earning potential can be created for farmers who want to work on nature-inclusive agriculture.
A healthy food environment and making healthy food choices is at the heart of the Food & Health professorship. The professorship focuses on 2 issues: the composition of the product and what you can say about it in your communication & marketing.
The Food Production in a Circular Economy professorship wants to facilitate businesses in the agri-food sector in producing with minimum impact on the environment while making the most efficient use of natural resources. This is mainly done by closing loops and making production processes more sustainable.
The Future Food Systems professorship group is working on intervention strategies and new business models that accelerate the transition to sustainable food systems. In this way, we contribute to the impact on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, nationally and internationally.
The Design Methods in Food professorship is the driving force behind the ZERO Food Waste Challenge with an aim to increase awareness among students in higher education, throughout the Netherlands, about the amount of food needlessly wasted in schools, institutions, and in the food industry. The live kick-off of this years edition took place on September 12, 2023 at 6:45 PM.
HAS green academy is currently working with Holland Greentech and UCCM Calavi on a Nuffic-project in French speaking Benin, West Africa focusing on giving substrate training to growers.
HAS green academy is currently participating in a two-year Nuffic project aimed at supporting and improving practical education in Indonesia. To do this, we are working together with both Indonesian and Dutch partners.
HAS green academy participates until May 2024 in the FORQLAB project. This project focuses on food loss/waste and food quality in the Kenyan avocado value chain.
During the international SEAD-West project, HAS green academy worked on the development of horticultural education in the western province of Rwanda. The project was completed for HAS green academy.
A public-private consortium of industrial and knowledge partners has received Dutch TKI grants for a multi-year, multi-phase project on using microbial biomass to create functional, protein-rich ingredients for sustainable production of food. The Protein Transition in Food professorship is working on this project on behalf of HAS green academy.
The Protein Transition in Food professorship is working on a multi-year research project on behalf of HAS green academy aimed at investigating the potential food safety and quality risks of microbial contaminants in plant-based food products, such as dairy alternatives.
The Protein Transition in Food professorship of HAS green academy is working on a project that develops bio-purification techniques based on fermentation. Fermentation has been used for millennia to create such familiar foodstuffs as yoghurt, bread, and beer, but it can be applied much more widely in food production using different microbial cultures.
A consortium comprising research organizations and companies from across the food production chain aims to understand and resolve flavour and texture issues related to plant-based foods. The results from this consortium will improve the eating experience for plant-based meat and dairy alternatives. The Protein Transition in Food professorship is working on this project on behalf of HAS green academy.
The Innovative Biomonitoring research group, a datascience research group and the bachelor programme Applied Geo-information Science of HAS green academy are working with SURF Cloud Research Consulting on a pilot study to develop a service to automatically store and process the required satellite images on Azure and subsequently use them as input for spatial analysis.
The Healthy food and healthy living research group encapsulates our ambition to, through practical research - linked to training, courses and advisory programmes - make a significant contribution to the objective: ‘Live a long and healthy life'.
The Healthy food production research group covers the entire food supply chain: themes such as circular agriculture, soil, food waste reduction, protein transition, new food systems, chain development, revenue models and entrepreneurship in the primary sector, are all significant components. We’ll focus on every aspect while never losing sight of the entire food supply chain.
Both rural and urban environments are on the cusp of major changes: nature and water quality are threatened and the climate is rapidly changing. Biodiversity must be restored and urban greening scaled up. A balance must be achieved between nature and its capacity to cope with the demands placed on it by society. The carrying capacity of the water and soil system has also been exceeded in many areas. These urgent issues have an impact on the physical space, the regional and local economies and the social cohesion of the rural and urban environments.
HAS green academy collaborates with international partner institutions on a number of initiatives, such as student exchange, staff mobility and teaching mobility. HAS green academy is a medium sized university of applied sciences. Students can easily find their way around at HAS, and the cities of Venlo and ‘s-Hertogenbosch. HAS is an informal organisation and students can easily approach lecturers and staff members. The institution has a very friendly and supportive learning environment.
Do you have a question and don't know where to go with it? You are facing a challenge, but are not sure how handle it? Our students and lecturer-advisers are happy to take on these kinds of challenges and issues. With our expertise and enthusiasm we ensure an appropriate end result.
