Activities at the Organic Farming Systems (BFS) Research and Education Group are geared towards the development and transfer of new scientific knowledge to analyze, design, and evaluate sustainable agricultural farming systems where natural ecological processes are utilized to the maximum possible.
Sustainable agricultural farming systems comprise both organic and integrated farms, but the emphasisis is on organic farming systems.
Research is focused on mixed animal and plant production systems and specialised plant production systems (if possible in collaboration with animal production systems).
