With its work, the Leibniz Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops (IGZ) contributes to a better understanding of plant systems and thus to the development of sustainable and resilient horticulture. The IGZ conducts research at the interface between plants, humans and the environment. In doing so, we address systemic and global challenges such as biodiversity loss, climate change, urbanization and malnutrition. We provide scientifically sound recommendations for healthy agri-food systems and sustainable interactions with the environment. The IGZ brings together a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines. Employees with different backgrounds conduct research in national and international research co-operations. The IGZ is based in Großbeeren near Potsdam and near Berlin and is a member of the Leibniz Association.

To contribute to the target of resource optimization in protected environment crop production through smart systems we look for an enthusiastic and ambitious

Reference Number: 18/2024/4

The employment will be initially at the earliest from October 1, 2024 for a period of 15 months. The salary will be based on qualification and research experience according to the wage agreement TV-L, up to pay scale 13, full time. The position is suitable for part-time work with at least 32 hours/week.

The scientist will be part of the research group HORTSYS-Controlled environment horticultural systems. The main research in this group is aiming at resource-use optimised crop production. We use our research for environmental control and resource conservation in greenhouses and controlled environments. In the EU Horizon Europe project EcoNutri focusing on optimizing fertilizing strategies of P and N cycles in agricultural production systems, HORTSYS participates as WP-coordinator for systems modelling and environmental assessment within an international consortium of 36 partn
