Cultivation

Modern organic growing

Skill and technology together

Organic growing demands precision: what grows without herbicides has to be tended mechanically. Modern machinery and an autonomous laser weeding robot make that work possible – the decisions are still made by those who know the field.

How we grow

How we grow

  • Wide crop rotation

    Vegetables, cereals and ley grass take turns. That keeps the soil healthy and breaks disease cycles.

  • Soil care

    Organic matter and gentle cultivation preserve the soil structure and its capacity to hold water.

  • Precise machinery

    Modern machines work more accurately, ease the physical load and are kinder to the crop.

  • Weeding without herbicides

    Mechanically, by hand – and now with an autonomous laser weeding robot.

Storage and energy

Room for 2’800 crates of organic vegetables

Our cold store holds organic vegetables from our own fields and from the region for months on end. On the roof, 900 m² of photovoltaics generate around 70 per cent of the electricity the cooling requires.

  • Cold store for around 2’800 large crates
  • Also for organic vegetables from the region
  • An unbroken cold chain from harvest onwards
  • 900 m² of photovoltaics on the hall roof
