Concerns about – Fewer and fewer farmers are driving their cattle to the mountain pastures

Date:

The Alpine season ends earlier than usual this year. What concerns farmer representatives is that fewer and fewer farmers are driving their livestock to the alpine pastures, pastures are of particular importance…

The Alpine summer is over! In any case for cattle, goats, sheep. The onset of winter has forced farmers to drive their livestock into the valley earlier than normal. “In recent years there have always been short-term snow showers, and the snow cover disappeared after two to three days,” recalls Sepp Obweger, president of the Alpine Association. “This year we had to deal with a cold period that lasted almost a week, which meant that the majority of the animals had to be culled prematurely.”
