The interactive lecture will be led by Anna-Lea Ortmann, PhD student in the agroforestry living laboratory of the TransRegINT project. She will explain the basics of sustainable agriculture to the young audience, focusing in particular on the innovative concept of agroforestry.

This involves the combination of different agricultural areas such as pasture farming or arable farming with tree fruit. Agroforestry allows areas to be made more ecologically diverse. The harvest is also extended by the woody plants with additional products.

Registration is not required. Admission is free.
