| The report presents the current (2005) status of organic farming resarch in Switzerland. Switzerland has a long history of organic farming research, which in its beginnings has been carried out by organic farming pioneers and by private institutions like the Goetheanum, Möschberg Centre and the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL). It was in the 1990s, when Swiss Federal Agricultural Research Stations (Agroscope) became also involved in organic research topics. It can be estimated that currently approximately € 7.5 million per annum are allocated very specifically to organic farming research from public budgets. The National Research Programme is organised according to a four-year research concept of the Swiss Federal Office of... |

| Aspects of multifunctional land use are increasingly gaining the attention of different urban actors in the city of Zurich, including urban gardeners, farmers and policy-makers as well as city administrators. This contribution is based on an exploratory case study on approaches and challenges for multifunctional land use with regard to urban agriculture in Zurich, including personal interviews, document analysis and a workshop with different actor groups. The city of Zurich, as the owner of a large area of farmland, has taken several approaches to multifunctional urban agriculture, which follow typical aspects of rural development, mainly targeting farmers. City dwellers, who are active in urban agriculture and gardening initiatives, increasingly challenge... |

| The Glass House (1914) at Dornach, Switzerland, in the precinct of the Goetheanum, is the oldest extant building designed by Rudolf Steiner. The building is intimately associated with the development of biodynamic agriculture. It was in the Glass House that Assya Turgeniev produced the remarkable engraved coloured glass windows of both the first and the present Goetheanum building, and hence the name 'Glass House'. In 1919, with Steiner's approval, Ehrenfried Pfeiffer (1899-1961) and Guenther Wachsmuth (1893-1963) set up a research laboratory in the basement of the Glass House. Thus began two decades of research work by Pfeiffer at Dornach, which culminated in the publication of his book 'Bio-Dynamic Farming and Gardening' (1938) in five languages, Dutch,... |

| Ernesto Genoni (1885-1975) was the pioneer of biodynamics in Australia. The exhibition, Angels of the First Class, presents art that he produced under the tutelage of Rudolf Steiner at Dornach, Switzerland, in the year of Steiner's Agriculture Course. A century ago, Ernesto joined the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and served as a stretcher bearer on the killing fields of the Western Front in 1916, in the battles of the Somme and Pozières. In 1923, Ernesto wrote to Rudolf Steiner from Italy offering his labour for advancing the Anthroposophy project. Ernesto arrived at Dornach early in 1924 and successfully applied to Dr Steiner for acceptance into the First Class (Erste Klasse der Freien Hochschule für Geisteswissenschaft). The First Class was Steiner’s... |

| The term “organic farming” first appeared in Lord Northbourne’s manifesto of organic agriculture, Look to the Land, published in 1940. This paper reveals how the outbreak of war in Europe in 1939 was the compelling reason for the writing of the book, and how the University of Oxford played key roles at important times in Northbourne’s life in shaping and sustaining his thinking. He was both a graduate in agriculture as well as a lecturer in agriculture of the university. This paper examines how and why the term ‘organic’ came to be, the timing of the term and the timing of the book, and why WWII was a crucial element in shaping Northbourne’s framing of the food contest of modern times as a contest of ‘organic versus chemical farming’. He foresaw this as a... |

| The Organic Revision project was funded by the EU with the aim of supporting the further development of the EU Regulation 2092/91 on organic production. As part of the project focus groups were run in five European countries on value concepts of organic producers and other stakeholders, during 2004-2005. The project aims to provide an overview of values held among organic stakeholders, and of similarities and differences among the various national and private organic standards. In Switzerland, three group sessions were held with established organic farmers, two groups with newly converted organic farmers, one group involved experts from BIO SUISSE and one group was conducted with students from Agronomy, Environmental Sciences and Geography faculties of... |

| Soils are one of the largest organic carbon pools and changes in the carbon release from soils has considerable impact on the composition of atmospheric CO2. Alongside the accelerated carbon release from soils by anthro-pogenic warming (Crowther et al., 2016), agricultural use strongly affects soil organic carbon (SOC) (Johnstonet al., 2009). Conversion from conventional to organic farming has been suggested a valuable contribution to sequester SOC providing a great mitigation potential within agricultural practices (Smith et al., 2008).Here we present SOC contents and 14C activity under two different farming practices in the long-termagricultural DOK trial at Therwil, Switzerland (Mäder et al., 2002). In this long-lasting agricultural experiment, we... |

| There is an urgent need to identify and evaluate management practices for their biophysical potential to maintain productivity under climate change while mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from individual cropping systems under specific pedo-climatic conditions. Here, we examined, through DayCent modeling, the long-term impact of soil management practices and their interactions on soil GHG emissions and GHG intensity from Swiss cropping systems. Based on experimental data from four long-term experimental sites in Switzerland (Therwil, Frick, Changins, and Reckenholz), we robustly parameterized and evaluated the model for simulating crop productivity, soil C dynamics and soil N2O emissions across a range of management practices and pedo-climatic... |

| On his final visit to Britain, Rudolf Steiner delivered three lectures a day during the Anthroposophical Society’s Summer School at Torquay (11-22 August 1924). Steiner took one day out of this hectic schedule to be a tourist for a day. The decision took him as far west as he ever ventured in his lifetime - to Tintagel on the west cost of Cornwall. The Tintagel visit occurred just two months after Steiner’s Agriculture Course and less than six weeks before Rudolf Steiner retreated from public life entirely. On this, his tenth visit to Britain, Steiner lectured on Anthroposophy and Waldorf education. The opportunity for agriculture lectures in Britain never arose, and there had been no Anglo attendees at the Koberwitz course. However, the Tintagel day trip... |

| Conclusions The examination of the question, “why animals on farms” demonstrates the potential of “in-farm research” to gaining in-depth knowledge of the farm. The scientist’s observations and co-working on the farm are a method of choices that allows an accurate evaluation of the current situation of the farm, its atmosphere and the inner perspective of the farmers. It also lets the scientist contrast impressions from a personal point of view and to challenge statements made by the farmers. In addition, farmers were grateful for the “non-economic” assessments of the farm. As a consequence of this work, the reasons farmers give for keeping cows has become more conscious, and their decisions may strengthen their motives while also helping with public... |

| Die Nachfrage nach Biolebensmitteln nimmt seit Jahren zu. Dies gilt auch für Biohonig. Von den zirka 16'000 Imkern in der Schweiz arbeiten bisher zirka 200 nach Bio-Richtlinien (Bio-Verordnung, Bio-Knospe oder Demeter). Aus einer früheren Untersuchung geht hervor, dass die Schweizer Bioimker ihren Honig meist direkt vermarkten. Dies führt dazu, dass der grösste Teil des von den grossen Detailhändlern vermarkteten Biohonigs importiert werden muss. Würden die Detailhändler den Bioimkern jedoch höhere Preise bezahlen, kleinere Liefermengen akzeptieren, die Herkunft des Honigs klar deklarieren und beispielsweise die Gründung von Kooperativen unterstützen, könnte in der Schweiz mehr inländischer Biohonig vermarktet werden und das grosse Marktpotenzial somit... |

| Die Schweizer Agrarpolitik verfolgt das Ziel, durch Direktzahlungen die ökologischen Leistungen von Landwirtschaftsbetrieben zu fördern. Evaluierungsprogramme zeigen jedoch, dass finanzielle Anreize allein nicht ausreichen, um die Umsetzung von Ökoausgleichsmassnahmen zu gewährleisten. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde untersucht, welche Rolle ökonomische, ökologische und soziale Motivationen bei der Umsetzung von Massnahmen im Ökoausgleich für Landwirte im Talgebiet spielen. Nach Einschätzung der Landwirte werden vor allem Ökoausgleichsmassnahmen umgesetzt, die sie als sinnvoll für den Naturschutz erachten und sich gut in den Betriebsablauf integrieren lassen. Für ÖLN-Produzenten sind finanzielle Aspekte im Verhältnis zu ökologischen wichtiger als für... |

| Das Projekt „Neue Wege zur nachhaltigen Landwirtschaft“ wird vom Bundesamt für Landwirtschaft (BLW) mitfinanziert und gemeinsam vom Forschungsinstitut für biologischen Landbau (FIBL), Agroscope und der Hochschule für Agrar-, Forst- und Lebensmittelwissenschaften (HAFL) durchgeführt. Das grundlegende Ziel des Projekts besteht darin zu untersuchen inwieweit betrieblichen Nachhaltigkeitsanalysen genutzt werden können, um die Schweizer Agrarpolitik effektiver, effizienter und bei der Bevölkerung und den Landwirten akzeptierter zu gestalten. Durch das bisherige Direktzahlungssystem haben sich zwar einige unerwünschte Nebeneffekte der landwirtschaftlichen Tätigkeit verringert. Jedoch zeigt sich, dass die Anstrengungen für den Erhalt unserer Lebensgrundlagen... |

| To address the influence of soil tillage reduction on crop yield and soil properties, an experiment was set up in 1969 in the western part of Switzerland. A conventional tillage treatment with plough was compared to a minimum tillage treatment and a deep non inversion tillage treatment, converted to no till in 2007. Evolution of crop yield through time was investigated, as well as the soil properties in 2013. Mean soil properties and their stratification with depth were assessed. The results showed that, after 44 years, globally, all tillage treatments allowedtomaintainsimilaryieldsinthelongterm.However,duringthesametime,soilpropertieshavechanged deeply. Soil organic carbon has decreased compared to the initial situation, in all treatments except in the... |
