Summary in the original language of the document

He explains how the ditches were planned and implemented in collaboration with keyline and agroforestry consultant Philipp Gerhardt (https://baumfeldwirtschaft.de). After initial experience with keylines in vegetables, an agroforestry system was created in combination with keylines. In addition, water is stored in a pond that serves as a biotope and retention basin. The pond collects not only rainwater, but also water from the roof surfaces of the farm building. This is used to irrigate the vegetable crops. Lukas van Puijenbroek is very satisfied with these measures, as they make his farm more climate-resilient in a relatively simple way.


Summary translation

Er erklärt, wie die Gräben in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Keyline- und Agroforstberater Philipp Gerhardt (https://baumfeldwirtschaft.de) geplant und umgesetzt wurden. Nach den ersten Erfahrungen mit Keylines im Gemüse folgte die Anlage eines Agroforstsystems kombiniert mit Keylines. Zusätzlich wird Wasser in einem Teich gespeichert, der als Biotop und als Retentionsbecken dient. Im Teich wird nicht nur Regenwasser, sondern auch Wasser von den Dachflächen des Hofgebäudes gesammelt. Damit werden die Gemüsekulturen bewässert. Lukas van Puijenbroek ist mit den Massnahmen sehr zufrieden, da sie seinem Betrieb zu einer verbesserten Klimaresilienz verhelfen.

Teaser:Learn more about innovative climate-friendly agriculture.
What problem does the tool address?:Many farmers are already implementing measures on their farms to mitigate climate change or reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Domestic and international projects are helping them identify optimal measures and solutions for their farms. One such example is the EU project "Climate Farm Demo", in which FiBL is part of the consortium. Holistic water management in vegetable production is one approach for resilient agroforestry systems.
What solution does the tool offer?:In this video, Lukas van Puijenbroek from Aebleten Farm in Switzerland presents keyline design and agroforestry. He has introduced these measures due to the increasingly extreme weather conditions (drought and heavy rain) on his farm. Keylines are based on contour lines and serve to store water.
