FARMING
The farm thinks and acts according to the categories of sustainable agriculture in which aesthetics and socio-political aspects also find their place.
The farm is a pioneer of biodynamic agriculture and has been a DEMETER member since 1984.
History
The farm was acquired by the Piatti family in 1834 as part of the Loosdorf estate. The agriculture was a typical estate management with changing focal points, such as arable farming, animal husbandry and plant breeding.
In 1982, Alfons Piatti converted the entire farm to organic and dynamic farming.
Since then, agriculture and forestry have been carried out on around 600 hectares according to biodynamic guidelines. A herd of around 60 cattle is also part of the farm and provides dung compost as fertiliser for the crops.
Philosophy
Agriculture has always been understood in a larger context. On the one hand, philosophically and spiritually as the basis of life for humans and animals as well as the source and guardian of all living things. On the other hand also geographically by initiating and accompanying agricultural projects.
The aim is to produce high-quality food for body, mind and soul.
The focus is on building up permanent humus in the soil with the associated soil fertility, as well as promoting climate protection.
