A Wissenstransfer from the Grundlagenforschung is carried out in practice over the longer term if it is central. The ISF as part of the system technology of the OST was involved in the collaboration with Agroscope and the Swiss Future Farm and thus became an optimal partner in all interests of the Farm-to-Food-Kette, i.e. of the institutes.
