The HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein Bio-Institute is a network hub for research, teaching, advice and practice. On September 28, 2023, the meeting of the Austrian grassland organic consultants took place in the organic institute building at Moarhof at the invitation of Bio-Austria and the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein.
The program included lectures on weeds in grassland and organic cattle breeding as well as specialist information on advisory funding 2024+ and on ongoing projects and current practical topics. In addition, the research needs in organic animal nutrition, organic animal husbandry and organic grassland farming were discussed in working groups in order to be able to adapt new research projects directly to the challenges in practice. Finally, there was a tour of the Bio-Institut's grassland experiments with a focus on biodiversity-promoting grassland management.
