Federal Minister Anja Karliczek attended “Green Week” in Berlin, making a stop at the Agrosystems of the Future exhibition stand.

The Federal Minister of Research expressed interest in the joint projects under the funding initiative and tried out the interactive Multitouch table, presenting the project topics and contents to visitors at the trade fair.

At the end of her visit, the Minister even took the time to try the “HaloSmoothie” of the AdZ consortium food4future. It contains halophytes – salt-tolerant plants – in addition to fruit and vegetables. They grow and thrive on saline soils and are being researched in food4future as a possible new food source.
