New beetle castle in Draßmarkt: a habitat for biodiversity
New beetle castle in Draßmarkt: a habitat for biodiversity
In the idyllic community of Drassmarkt, the goal has been set to preserve nature for the coming generations. Here the "Practice workshop of a Käferburg" was carried out, a project that draws attention to the importance of biodiversity. The Käferburg, which was built in a sunny location on the organic farm of Sylvia Fruhmann in the Karl district, offers valuable habitat for beetles and other insects.
This initiative was organized by Sylvia Fruhmann, a committed organic farmer who invited local farmers and hunters to a workshop. Under the guidance of biologist Georg Berbuch, the participants not only learned a lot about the habitat of the insects, but also received practical insights into how to create habitats from dead wood and a special earth-shawber mixture. It should be emphasized that standing dead wood, which is slowly rotting, offers protection, food and nesting options.A step to promote biodiversity
The Käferburg is more than just an environmental project; It is a visible sign of active nature conservation. Sylvia Fruhmann explained the importance of such initiatives and pointed out that around 7,500 types of beetles are known in Austria, of which around 20 percent are dependent on dead wood. The Käferburg should therefore make an important contribution to the preservation of biodiversity and strengthen awareness among the population for such habitats.
With its striking line -up, the Käferburg also attracts the attention of the villagers. Consisting of inserted deadwood trunks filled with earth and sawdust, it offers a protected habitat for numerous insect species, fungi and even some small animals. This is an important step to maintain domestic beetle populations and to promote biodiversity in the region.
sustainability as a guiding principle
The organic farming of Sylvia Fruhmann not only pursues the creation of habitats, but also focuses on other sustainable initiatives. In recent years, a multi -benefit hedge has been planted that not only offers nesting places for many bird species, but also creates habitat for low game such as pheasants and rabbits. This holistic concept shows that biodiversity can also increase the yield in the field.
"Where there is life, there is even more life. At the same time, the yield in the field is increased, which results in multiple benefits: animals are more living space, which in turn has a positive impact on the harvest," explained Sylvia Fruhmann and underlined the connection between natural agriculture and ecological diversity.
The farm focuses on field and vegetable growing with a variety of crops such as potatoes, red beets and various types of root vegetables. Natural methods are used to support the plants. Despite the challenging harvesting conditions this year, Sylvia Fruhmann remains optimistic and sells her products both directly on the farm and on the farmers' market in Raiding. Her passion for sustainable agriculture is shown in every aspect of your work and the tireless dedication to nature.
These initiatives in the Drass market are not only a profit for the wildlife, but also a strong sign for environmental protection and the promotion of local agriculture. The Käferburg is a symbol of the conscious handling of natural resources and the responsibility that we have to bear for our environment.
