Summary Evaluation of the survey on the life cycle of a local product
Costumers are the important people for farmers as they buy their products, that is also why it was important to obtain not only information from experts, but also opinions and views of the population on the subject "Growth of a local product". For this reason, we started a survey in which we wanted to find out the apple varieties known to the population and additional questions about the cultivation and process of production.

Hi guys,
For the next step of my project, I have decided to conduct a survey.
The main goal of this survey is to find people's thoughts on organic farming, chemical fertilizers and harsh farming techniques. Through this survey I am trying to find out whether people think that organic farming could help us and is it sustainable?
Link to the survey, please send it to all your friends and colleagues!

Filming Day on the Farm - drone video
Some weeks ago we did an interview with the Farmer, Mr Keller. As pictures and videos bring closer looks into projects, we decided to go for it. A friend of mine flies drons and offered us new opportunities for the project.
On Thursday, 2nd January 2020 the day finally came, it was an incredibly cold afternoon, after two hours of filming, the feet were already frozen and of course the hands as well. We were really happy and lucky to get a cup of tea afterwards to defrost ourselves.
The filming was very interesting, the drone flew from here to there, back, and did some turns... absolutely flexible! Check our finale post on befter (coming soon) to watch the video.
Cheers,
Simone, Tamara, Stefanie
- Do the interview with the local farm shop
- Read the "Taten-statt-Worte" Guidelines and pick out some good informations
- Write new parts from our contribution on befter

We've got an answer to our request about visiting a hemp-farm. They told us that they don't have enough time to show us their hemp-farm because they have a huge amount of requests from other students as well. But they said we can send them our questions for our interview and they will try their best to answer them. Our next steps will therefore be:
- sending them our questions per e-Mail
- start to collect their answers as well as our informations and findings
- prepare the documents so we can publish our project as soon as possible

With our survey we want to find out the behaviour and the view of diffrent humans about the production of apples.

On Wednesday 13th November 2019 we interviewed a local farmer, named Martin Keller. He is a orchard grower (= Obstbauer) but also owns and raises cute animals. He took us around and showed us the farm. There were apple and pear trees, apricot trees, plum trees, cherry trees, strawberry and some raspberry bushes. We realized how less we know about apples. The harvest has just finished and will start again in July.More...

Last week the first climate lawsuit in Germany was negotiated in Berlin. Although the complaint was rejected, the three farmers concerned and their lawyer speak of a partial success.
Two weeks before the trial Claus Blohm leaves his harvest. A coach parks in his yard, next to it boxes full of apples with brown spots. Young people in Greenpeace rain jackets line up around the fruit trees, which did not bear a single apple this year after last year's hot summer. Blohm wants to show the young people that climate change is not taking place somewhere in the world and not just in computer simulations - but here, More...
