The knowledge platform for traditional agriculture in the Alps

In the Alps, local livestock breeds and traditional crop varieties have developed that are adapted to the specific environmental conditions in the Alps. These domesticated animals and plants require special agricultural techniques and methods to thrive. Only by conserving this knowledge can the biological agricultural diversity of the Alps be maintained. FUNDUS Agri-Cultura Alpina collects this traditional farming knowledge about local livestock breeds, crop varieties and agricultural practices and makes it accessible to the public.
