Summary in the original language of the document
Lokales ökosystemares Wissen der Bevölkerung über Futter- und Heilpflanzen aus Wildsammlung für Tiere dokumentieren;
Mögliche Bedeutung dieses Wissens für ein modernes, nachhaltiges Management natürlicher Ressourcen (z.B. durch Ökologischen Landbau) bewerten.
Mittels interdisziplinärer ethnobotanischer Methoden (quantitativ und qualitativ):
- Wissen über Futter- und Heilpflanzen aus Wildsammlung für Tiere dokumentieren;
- jene Einflussfaktoren analysieren, die zu Erhaltung/Verlust dieses Wissens führen;
- die mögliche Bedeutung dieses Wissens insbesondere für die Weiterentwicklung des Ökologischen Landbaus bewerten;
- Empfehlungen für Maßnahmen geben, die es der Politik sowie anderen regionalen und nationalen Akteuren erlauben, die Vorschläge aus dem Projekt umzusetzen;
- Durch Veröffentlichungen, Netzwerkbildung und Unterstützung lokaler Aktionen Vorhaben und Erkenntnisse des Projektes lokal, regional, national und international bekannt machen, mit vergleichbaren Vorhaben abstimmen.
Summary translation
Local knowledge in Eastern Tyrol
Part I: Plant species collected in the wild with use as animal fodder or as veterinary medicine in EasternTyrol, Austria
Gathering of wild plant species is an activity done frequently by farmers, including organic farmers. This activity is also regulated in EEC Regulation 2092/91 for Organic Farming. The gathered species are used as food, teas, ornamentals, as fodder or for human or veterinary medicinal purposes. Due to the restrictions for the use of allopathic medicine in organic farming, the local knowledge of farmers about phototherapy is of importance for the organic farming movement. In this project in Eastern Tyrol the local knowledge of farmers about gathered plant species, their use, processing and the related experience of farmers is studied with tools and methods of ethnobotany during a period of 24 months. The results will be validated by veterinary doctors. In addition the legal framework for the use of gathered plant species in veterinary medicine will be assessed.
Part II: Traditional crops and elder cultivars in EasternTyrol, Austria
Propagation of harvested seeds and plantlets of traditional local crops and their varieties is done frequently by farmers, including organic farmers. This activity is regulated in several EEC Regulations, including 2092/91 for Organic Farming. The maintenance of agrobiodiversity through these activities of propagation is an important contribution of farmers to the conservation of cultural and biological diversity worldwide. In this project in Eastern Tyrol the local knowledge of farmers about traditional crops and their varieties, their use, processing and the related experience of farmers is studied with tools and methods of ethnobotany during a period of 24 months. The results will be a basis to elaborate strategies and practices for In Situ Conservation of traditional crops and their varieties in the study area.
