Modern Farming – Conserving Alpine Fauna

The Alpine region is home to 30,000 animals and 13,000 plants. But the diverse ecosystem is endangered. What innovative approaches can preserve this unique ecosystem?

But how can sustainable agriculture be shaped that can preserve this unique biodiversity? We meet the new generation of farmers, chefs, and gourmets who all have a common goal: the preservation of Alpine diversity.
