Research, Development and Innovations

The mission of the Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences (FALS) is to foster scientific and technological development in the field of agriculture. Modern food production demands environmentally friendy and sustainable practices, which result in quality food production. Along with automatization and reduction of physical input, the final aim is to produce healthy and safe food along the supply chain from farm to fork.

FALS conducts developmental, applicable and fundamental research independently and in collaboration with study groups from other institutions. The work is carried out through research groups and numerous independent research projects, which are conducted as international, fundamental, applicable and goal oriented research, as well as research intended for direct users. Our experts regularly publish their work in international scientific journals, at scientific congresses and symposiums. All this has strengthened FALS’s international collaborations with eminent institutions from Europe and around the globe. The collaborations also include staff and student exchanges through the Erasmus+ programme.

Excellence and autonomy of researchers in the academic environment is of primary importance for us as it leads to the welfare of humanity. We believe that research activities and first hand experience of the faculty staff is a prerequisite for a successful education of students.

University Agricultural Center (UKC)

The faculty is located in the most agriculture-intensive part of eastern Slovenia. It has an experimental estate called University Agricultural Center, where researchers can plan and perform experiments. Equipment as well as technical help is available for maintanance of experiments at the experimental site. 

The experimental site comprises:

  • 55 ha of orchards (apples, pears, plums, cherries, peaches), 
  • 18 ha of vineyards (Meranovo region)
  • 60 ha of crop-fields
  • 22 ha of pastures
  • 240 ha of forests
  • 8 ha of Botanical garden
  • Test premises for paultry and pig breeding

 

Laboratories

The microbiological/biochemical laboratory is equipped with laminar flow cabinets and incubators which allow the growth and selection of microorganisms. For analysis, microtiter plate readers (absorbance, fluorescence, chemoluminescence) and a complete range of instruments for DNA analysis (PCR, RT-PCR, electrophoresis, blotting, imager) is available. The staff has experience particularly in the field of food pathogens and lactic acid bacteria. Next generation DNA sequencing equipment is accesible for use through the University.

The cell culture laboratory has instruments for in vitro cell culture maintanance, with CO2 incubators, microscopes and -70°C freezers. A flow cytometer is accesible for use through the University.

The chemical laboratory has the equipment needed for the characterization of soil, fruit and vegetable samples prepared in field experiments. It has HPLC systems, an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (ETAAS), a Kjeldahl and a Soxhlet among other analytical systems.

The laboratory for botany and plant physiology is equipped with a computer supported fluorescence microscope and stereomicroscope, a HPLC system, a laminar air flow cabinet and ecophysiological sensors (TDP sap flow sensors, piranometer, quantum sensors, humidity sensors…) supported with dataloggers.  

The laboratory for plant tissue culture is equipped with a laminar air flow cabinet, a microscope and growth chambers. It also includes a separate room for acclimatization of in vitro plantlets.
