In the Footsteps of Albrecht Daniel Thaer

Germany

About

Regenerative agriculture through field demonstrations and a traveling exhibition.

In the Footsteps of Albrecht Daniel Thaer is a 12-month initiative led by Onewater in Germany. It reconnects Europe with Thaer’s humus-based agricultural thinking through Precision Demo Tours, the TUM Pentecost Excursion, living-lab meetings, and the traveling exhibition The Three Bridges. Activities in Leipzig, Potsdam, Briesen, Leitzen, and other locations combine historical interpretation, soil demonstrations, smart farming technologies, school kits, and open manuals. The project strengthens soil literacy around humus, biodiversity, water storage, climate resilience, and regenerative agriculture.
