Dr Ana Kreter, coordinator of the team Agroforestry Living Lab, will present regional agroforestry partners and their products, which you will be able to sample afterwards.
Agroforestry systems combine arable farming or permanent grassland, with or without livestock, together with woody plants on one area. A simple example from the Lower Rhine: the orchard meadow. In the short term, the Agroforst Reallabor aims to create demonstration areas for various agroforestry systems in the Lower Rhine region in cooperation with farms and to accompany these scientifically. This will enable intelligent agroforestry that points the way to a sustainable future.
What do the people of Xanten put in their bags?
Dr. Ana Kreter is also keen to raise awareness of conscious product selection and purchasing: “Sustainable food systems such as agroforestry only have a chance if consumers also value the products of these systems.” What is important to you when shopping? The price, the origin, the impact on the climate and environment or the story behind the product? In the Weberturm, she will shed light on the importance of food, the background to supposedly higher prices for fresh food and how our decisions influence what is available on the market.
This event is part of the DialogPunkt Xanten in cooperation with the city of Xanten.
The location is not barrier-free.
