Schaan Organic Farm 1 is a model enterprise in Liechtenstein's largest municipality, specializing in the organic cultivation of regional grain varieties such as the traditional 'Ribelmais'. Schaan possesses the most extensive agricultural lands in the Rhine Valley, which are maintained through sustainable management and the avoidance of chemical pesticides. The farm combines modern agricultural technology with traditional crop rotation methods to ensure long-term soil fertility. In addition to crop farming, organic livestock husbandry plays a central role, with great emphasis placed on animal welfare and the preservation of heritage breeds. As an educational center, the farm provides insights into the connections between ecology and nutrition, supplying local markets with high-quality organic products.
