Josef Moosbrugger: An experienced official

Josef Moosbrugger, born on June 30, 1966 in Dornbirn, has been President of the Vorarlberg Chamber of Agriculture since 1999 and played a central role in Austrian agricultural policy. He started his political career as a official of the rural youth and the young farmers before working as a chamber council in 1991.

2018 he was elected President of the Presidential Conference of the Austrian Chamber of Agriculture and took part in decisive negotiations on government formation in the field of climate protection, environment and agriculture.

The role of the chambers of agriculture in Austria

The founding of the Craumatic Craumers in Austria has a long history that goes back to the 18th century. The first mergers in agriculture and forestry were created in the second half of the 18th century. With the foundation of "agricultural companies", the interests of the farmers began. However, the most important steps to establish today's retail chains were only carried out after the First World War, when autonomous professional interest groups were created.

On February 22, 1922, the first Chamber of Agriculture was founded in Lower Austria, and other federal states followed in the next ten years. The basic idea of ​​these institutions is to ensure an independent advocacy of the entire agriculture and forestry.

Josef Moosbrugger not only affects the agricultural chambers, but also on the future of the rural interest groups in Austria. His choice ensures the representation of the concerns of agriculture and forestry at both state and federal level. With his experience and commitment, it is expected to continue to play a major role in agriculture.
