e-infrastructure Roadmap for Open Science in Agriculture

A bibliometric study

The e-ROSA project seeks to build a shared vision of a future sustainable e-infrastructure for research and education in agriculture in order to promote Open Science in this field and as such contribute to addressing related societal challenges. In order to achieve this goal, e-ROSA’s first objective is to bring together the relevant scientific communities and stakeholders and engage them in the process of coelaboration of an ambitious, practical roadmap that provides the basis for the design and implementation of such an e-infrastructure in the years to come.

This website highlights the results of a bibliometric analysis conducted at a global scale in order to identify key scientists and associated research performing organisations (e.g. public research institutes, universities, Research & Development departments of private companies) that work in the field of agricultural data sources and services.

Title

Zero food miles super-circuit

en
Abstract

The manifestation of this project starts with the idea of reclaiming undefined spaces around the Berlin S-bahn network. The potentials for intervention of urban spaces along the ring are enormous as they are well connected to the rest of the city. Demand for sustainable food is on a rapid rise in Germany, and organic food producers are unable to keep up with the increasing demand. In Berlin, food travels an approximate half of the city's length before it reaches the consumers, contributing greatly to thousands of food miles. This fact sparks a number of design notions of the possibility to plant food within the confinements of the city to supply the need of the urban populace and beyond. The chosen site for this proposal is between two stations, Westhafen and Beusselstrasse, strategically located along the river and Tegal airport further enables it to be an important transit and epicentre for future expansion that link the whole of the S-Bahn ring. The preference towards this type of food production is new and could be accepted as more Berliners opt for organic and locally-produced food. The mechanism of plot ownership leads back to the traditional allotment gardens owned by the city dwellers.
