How gardens, communities and infrastructure areas can become blooming habitats:
Biodiversity doesn't just begin in fields and grasslands, but right on our doorstep: in gardens, along roads, by streams, or on municipal land. In this episode of Agrar Science – Knowledge in a Nutshell, PD Dr. Andreas Steinwidder with Dr. Bernhard Krautzer, grassland and plant breeding expert at the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein. Dr. Krautzer understands the value of regional seeds and has valuable experience in the successful and lasting establishment of biodiversity areas. From selecting the right seeds and preparing the soil to long-term maintenance, he shows how plant diversity can be created sustainably – and what contribution each and every one of us, as well as the public sector, can make to ensure that landscapes remain colorful, stable, and conducive to life.
