System for monitoring water stress in grapevines
This technology continuously monitors water stress in vineyards through direct measurement from the plant. The sensor information enables quick decision making to avoid severe drought or over-irrigation of vineyards. The team is looking at expanding the technology to additional crops.
Novel mechanism to enhance plant growth under sustainable agricultural system (SUMO Crops)
Mechanism for improving abiotic stress tolerance in monocotyledonous food crops.
A natural, biodegradable, anti-microbial plant pathogen control agent (BioPEP)
The technology is a antimicrobial coating or treatment for a wide range of manufactured products including medical equipment (devices, PPP, etc), food packaging, surfaces, papers, flooring, pipes, and the like. The cyclodecapeptides proposed are bacterial-derived and may have a composition of tryocidine, trypocidine, phenycidine, gramicidin S, or analogue.
A Novel Yeast-Based Biofertiliser
A yeast strain with the potential to be used as a biofertiliser of blue lupin and wheat within a break-crop or crop rotation system to increase growth of both plants.
PhenoLab
PhenoLAB is a web-based application for phenolic analyses in red grapes, fermenting samples and in wines. The platform provides users with the ability to generate, interpret, benchmark and store phenolic data in real time.
Wine filtration system for preventing pinking in white wines
A filtration device for reducing oxidation in varieties of white wines. Elimination of oxygen (O2) is of utmost importance to the winemaker during reductive vinification. If not, pinking occurs affecting the quality of the wines.
Amaasing
A lactose free Amasi-based Ice cream.
Multistrain Probiotic Composition
A multi-strain probiotic, consisting of six different bacterial strains, that has the potential to enhance the immune responsiveness of broiler chickens and decrease the burden that pathogenic bacteria place on broiler chicken growth performance.
Power and Water saving sprinkler for agricultural irrigation
An energy and water efficient sprinkler for centre pivot irrigation systems.
