We hear how departmental research works, why it is so important for Austria and how international collaborations – from Horizon Europe to the 3-country cooperation (Bavaria, South Tyrol and Austria) – contribute to the further development of agriculture, forestry, the environment and regions.
An exciting look behind the scenes of a research field that significantly shapes our future.
