Why our new strategy is important for you
Our goal: a food system fit for the future – enough healthy food for everyone, produced and consumed in environmentally and socially responsible ways. We have charted a path for achieving it in our 2024–2028 strategy, which is based on the conviction that development can only take place if several key levers are worked simultaneously, supplemented by cooperation with stakeholders who have similar goals.

Sounding Soil – healthy soil makes noise
Soils that are alive make sounds – and soils that are cultivated in different ways sound different from one another. The research and art project “Sounding Soil” makes these sounds audible. Biovision uses “Sounding Soil” to sensitise the population, students, farmers and decision makers about sustainably managing soils.
