Mauren Organic Farm 5 is located in northeastern Liechtenstein on the border with Austria and specializes in organic crop farming and the husbandry of endangered domestic animal breeds. The municipality of Mauren is characterized by a gentle hilly landscape and the Birka nature reserve, which serves as an important sanctuary for rare bird species. The farm places great emphasis on closed nutrient cycles and uses its own manure to maintain soil quality. In addition to growing feed grains, the farm is dedicated to breeding Grauvieh cattle and Appenzeller Spitzhauben chickens to contribute to agro-biodiversity. Historically, the region was an important border point, evidenced by Roman finds near Schaanwald. Today, the farm acts as a bridge between organic production and landscape conservation, with extensive hedgerows intentionally promoted as nesting sites and windbreaks.
