Detail description
Compliance with grassland proportions in crop rotations is essential for low and livestock-free organic farms in Switzerland. These farms must follow strict soil protection and crop rotation rules beyond legal requirements, ensuring long-term fertility, clean groundwater, and ecosystem services. Guidelines from Bio Suisse and Demeter support sustainable practices in arable, vegetable, and herb farming through practical, science-based methods.
