Summary
The video shows how farms experiment with new crops like soybeans and sunflowers, explore agroforestry systems such as Viti-Forst, and improve soil health, carbon sequestration and biodiversity through legumes, clover grass and cover crops. The video also looks at the complex debate around livestock, methane emissions and sustainable grassland management. Produced during Climate Week, organized by Grünlandzentrum and Bioland, this film highlights the diversity of approaches within the European ClimateFarmDemo network.

|---|---|
| Teaser: | How organic farms in Germany adapt to climate change. |
| What problem does the tool address?: | Climate change is transforming agriculture. Farmers face more extreme weather while also needing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But how can farms adapt? |
| What solution does the tool offer?: | At the ClimateFarmDemo field days in Lower Saxony (Germany), organic farms share their strategies for climate-resilient agriculture. From solar-powered farm robots and innovative cultivation systems to robust dairy breeds, diverse crop rotations and soil-building practices, farmers demonstrate practical solutions for farming in a changing climate. |
