Agroecology

We support the development and implementation of agroecological approaches along the entire agricultural value chain – from operational practice to political strategy. Our range of services includes:

1. Farm consulting and practical support

We support farms in introducing and further developing agroecological methods, such as soil-conserving cultivation methods, crop rotation, biodiversity promotion and climate protection measures. We also advise on investments, funding programmes and the economic optimization of sustainable systems.

2. Sustainability assessment and system development

With our tried-and-tested assessment system, we support farms in the objective recording and further development of their agro-ecological and socio-economic sustainability performance. This includes ecological as well as social and economic criteria.

3. Further training and organizational development

We offer practice-oriented training and coaching formats for farm managers and employees to strengthen agroecological knowledge and skills in a targeted manner. We also advise on the strategic development and organizational structure of sustainable farms.

4. Policy and strategy development

We advise political and technical decision-makers on the development and implementation of agroecological strategies and concepts. In doing so, we contribute scientific findings, practical experience and international perspectives to national and international discourses.

5. Research, knowledge transfer and method integration

We combine agroecological principles with innovative technologies, e.g., precision agriculture and digitalization. We also promote the systematic further development of agroecological methods through applied research, evaluation and the exchange between practice, science and consultancy.
