Practice Abstract: KUKENBERGER ORGANIC FARM! Green Packaging Revolution
In today's world, the extensive use of disposable packaging is a pressing global environmental concern. To combat this problem, the family farm, led by Toni Kukenberger, launched an innovative initiative. Their goal was to address the environmental impact of disposable packaging by introducing a reusable system. Their objective was to provide high-quality dairy products directly to consumers while simultaneously making substantial reductions in the use of plastic packaging. This not only aligns with global efforts to reduce waste but also significantly strengthens the farmer's position from the consumers' perspective.
