Beratungskonzept

I provide independent professional advisory services. My aim is empowering the farmer so that, as soon as possible, he/she does not need my support any longer. My attitude is open-minded and of respect, honesty, appreciation, cooperation, responsibility and constant improvement. I listen well to the other, and try to feel and understand their difficulties, wants, aims, as well as the essence of the project, so that I can better serve. After a comprehensive understanding of the present situation, I intend to provide a proposal which addresses the particular needs and circumstances, and that is reasonable and practical. I assert what in my view is needed or important, but it is up to the client to decide. The farmer has my support in the path that he/she has chosen. Throughout the process, I keep exchanging with the farmer/farm team and getting their feedback. I stay flexible and make changes when needed. If I find it necessary/important, I make recommendations not only regarding biodynamics, but also about agronomic or agroecology aspects. For important changes where I see different possible solutions, I share and discuss with the farmer about the whys, expected outcomes, pros and cons of each one, so that he/she can take the decision which suits them the best. Regarding conversion to Demeter standards, I provide comprehensive and practical conversion plans, with a good application of biodynamic principles. I also pay attention that they are well-structured and easy to understand. I clearly pinpoint what needs to be changed in order to comply with Demeter standards. I also make recommendations on other elements, and explain why. Special focus is made on measures addressing the critical points and weaknesses, in order to overcome them.

Projekte

Conversion to Demeter International standards of several farms in Portugal (vegetable crops; mixed farms including grapevines, olive orchards and other perennials; agroforestry – montado with extensive livestock). 8-year practical research in viticulture (grapevine ecophysiology, water-stress, training-systems, etc in different countries and situations). On-hand experience in preparation making and use since 2015. Implementation of biodynamic practices in vineyards. Practical field trials and assessment on the effect on biodynamic preparations and compost (through morpho-chromatography, agronomic parameters and observation). Practice in a Demeter market garden in France.

Bemerkungen

I am ignited by the vision of a world where biodynamics, combined with the best practices of agroecology and other regenerative approaches is the normal way of farming. I am available and willing to work in Spain, Portugal, France, rest of EU / Europe, Morocco, Tunisia, other countries in Africa, Asia or America.
