Digitally Driven Development of Saxony-Anhalt into an Innovation Hub for Pea Breeding, Cultivation, and Utilization (DiPisum)

The breeding, cultivation and processing of peas are potential future markets for securing protein-rich foods in the central German region of Saxony-Anhalt. The main aim of the DiPisum project is to bundle the existing strengths from the region and to unlock innovations from the fields of digitalization, genomics, breeding, plant cultivation and the food industry for the pea crop of the future in order to develop Saxony-Anhalt into a center of the pea bioeconomy and thus create jobs in these areas in the model region of Central Germany.
