How can the origin of meat be identified when it is no longer possible to tell from its appearance which animal it came from? Molecular genetics provides the answer, and visitors to the CZU stand at Země živitelka 2026 will have an opportunity to learn more about it.

A complete feed mix for breeding rabbits—developed in collaboration with experts from the Faculty of Agrobiology, Food and Natural Resources CZU and the Research Institute of Animal Production, public research institution—won the prestigious Golden Ear award at this year’s 52nd annual Země živitelka international agricultural fair. A CZU student also achieved success at the exhibition, winning an award for her pickled zucchini.

On the opening day of the international Země živitelka agricultural fair, the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague is presenting a topic that has long been central to its work. At its stand in Pavilion T, visitors can discover the latest version of the “Smart Landscape” concept, this time tailored to regions affected by mining in the Karlovy Vary and Sokolov areas. They can also learn how urban buildings and their roofs can be adapted to climate change at a time when cities can resemble blazing furnaces on hot summer days.

From a firefighting robot to smart solutions for cities and the countryside to sustainable cosmetics. This year at Země živitelka, CZU will present projects that showcase the wide range of topics the university addresses and, above all, how its research translates into practical solutions.
