Animals at Oberniederhof

Old breeds , modern times

Many people know that wild animals and plants die out, but not many know that something similar occurs in agricultural contexts to domestic plants and animals. Human nutrition depends on survival of a few, high-performance breeds.

In order to preserve biodiversity and support the survival of habitat-adaptet breeds, which represent an important heritage, we devote ourselves to the breeding of ancient breeds worth protecting from the ever-growing request for increasing yields.

That's why Oberniederhof as an "ArchaeoFarm" (archaeological far) is member of the association for the preservation of domestic breeds (G.E.H -Gesellschaft zur Erhaltung schützenswerter Haus- und Nutztierrassen). We undertake to reintroduce such breeds in the production cycle to produce food of the highest quality. We safeguard this breeds' history and evolution.
