"Agroforestry in Austria" Network

The progressing climatic change in the regions dominated by arable farming in East Austria cause agricultural holdings to test new growing methods; among them also agroforestry systems. In Austria there are; only few examples of implementation. There was no contact point for interested agricultural holdings; nor a network for the exchange of information and experience between practice and science. The OG has therefore created the practice-based “Agroforestry in Austria” network. It includes six arable farms with an interest in implementing farm-adapted agroforestry systems. The network makes insights from this pioneer work to other farms and multipliers available.
