Schellenberg Organic Farm 9 (Liechtenstein)

Weather…

The organic farm in Schellenberg is situated in a prominent location on the Eschnerberg, historically known for its strategic importance. Agriculture on this high plateau benefits from above-average solar radiation, which has a positive effect on plant growth and product quality. The farm specializes in dairy farming and the cultivation of forage legumes, with grazing management designed to protect the soil structure. Through the terraced landscape and the small-scale structure of the fields, a varied landscape is maintained, which is also attractive for sustainable tourism. A focus of the work is regenerative agriculture, where carbon sequestration in the soil is promoted through minimal tillage. The farm works closely with local conservation groups to support populations of field birds and wild bees through targeted wildflower strips. As part of the Schellenberg ensemble, the farm represents a bridge between traditional management and future-oriented ecology.
