About Laimburg Research Centre

Laimburg Research Centre, established in 1975, is the research centre for agriculture and food quality in South Tyrol. Through scientifically sound experimentation and research, we develop know-how, solutions to problems, and innovations for the South Tyrolean agriculture and food processing sectors. With our research, we ensure the cultivation and production of high-quality agricultural products in South Tyrol and make a concrete contribution to securing the continued development of local operations. We coordinate our annual programme of activities together with representatives of the South Tyrolean agricultural and food processing sectors. This ensures that our research and experimentations directly address the concrete needs of agricultural and food processing practice in South Tyrol. Each year, our 200 employees work on approximately 350 projects pertaining to all areas of South Tyrolean agriculture, from fruit and wine growing to special crops such as vegetables and berries, mountain agriculture, food processing and quality, as well as product innovation for companies operating in the food sector. This enables us to cover the entire food production chain, from cultivation to the finished product.
