    Review of the organic conference – “Cultivation and utilization of new and rediscovered cultures – more food from local fields”

    We can look back with great satisfaction on this year's successful organic conference for arable farming, which took place as a web conference on November 11th. took place. A very diverse selection of speakers from all over the German-speaking world provided the participants with an extremely wide range of information. Many options for producing and marketing organic food were presented and also related side aspects. The focus of the organic conference was:

    • Breeding away from the crowd - the diversity of the pea and other food crops
    • Technical processing of legumes – options and examples from practice
    • Chickpeas in the Atlantic climate of Central Europe
    • Growing recommendations for white lupine
    • Traditional types of beans and their use
    • New crops such as lentils, beans and sweet potatoes
    • Potato in organic farming
    • Refinement of threshing crops on the farm
    • Protein from clover grass silage for chickens and pigs
