Postdoctoral Position in Germany at Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research 2024 is open. The Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) aims to find ways for farming to work well for the environment, the economy, and society. Based near Berlin, it studies how using legumes in farming can benefit nature and farmers. The Legumes project in the EU focuses on making legume-based farming better by involving different people and finding practical ways to improve it. ZALF is in charge of looking at how these farming changes might affect the money side of things. They’ll also test these ideas in Brandenburg to see how well they work in real farms. They’re offering a part-time job for someone with experience in farming systems to help with this research for two years, maybe longer.
Preference is given to female applicants. Similarly, qualified individuals with severe disabilities are favored in the selection process. Part-time work arrangements are generally accommodated for this position.
