Farms

  • KÖLBW: Become Part of the ÖkoNetzBW!
    Connecting farms with each other and fostering collaboration are the main goals of the new project “Network of Organic Demo Farms in Baden-Württemberg.” The Agricultural Technology Center (LTZ) Augustenberg is seeking organic farms willing to engage as partners in the network and serve as platforms for discussions and events with colleagues and other professionals. Promoting and expanding organic farming is part of the state's policy framework and a key component of the “Bio from Baden-Württemberg” action plan. In the ÖkoNetz, practical topics related to organic farming and conversion are addressed with and by farmers. A particular focus is placed on farmer-to-farmer communication, facilitated through “Farmer-to-Farmer Dialogues”, which provide a platform for active dialogue and exchange.
