ASSOCIAZIONE BIODIN-AMICI DEL TRIVENETO


Headquarters:Corso Libertà 85 MERANO (BZ) Italia
Head Office: via Castelnuovo - Carzano (TN) at Roberto Denart farm


Statement by the President

The invitation to approach biodynamic agriculture is open to all. Whether farmers or hobbyists who grow only the garden of the house, does not matter. What matters is the fact that these people are approaching with sensitivity and respect, helping all living beings on our earth and not only for their own interest.

My words do not want to impose choices but just want to clarify. My intuition leads me to find a balance between land, animals, insects, man and cosmos. If we look around we see that we still have to improve a lot.

 
Agriculture conducted with conventional methods has very serious impacts on natural systems. The fertility of soils is unsustainable with only chemical fertilizers. Plant disease fighting techniques for agricultural crops are even more dependent on “agri-pharmaceutical” products, just look at what is used against the "weeds" and host of "pathogens": powerful poisons which can pollute groundwater and destroy insects and animals. This was not enough. Hunting, still permitted, is practiced at times haphazardly, breaking the delicate balance that the animals are trying to build. Protected species risk ending up just stuffed!


To search all the ways to restore this balance that we are losing, along with other farmers and consumers, we have formed the Associazione Biodin-Amici del Triveneto (Social Promotion Association). It will help those who want to take organic and biodynamic farming, agriculture methods that we want to promote to respect the environment. We will organize specific courses at all levels, conferences and seminars to disseminate our knowledge.


I give you some choices to be our own. The statute provides for different categories of members:
  • Associated with supporters share of € 20.00 per year, with the right to participate in all activities of the association and any discounts on the purchase of foodstuffs. They have no right to vote at, and can not be elected for office. However, they may elect a representative to attend meetings of the Governing Council, to contribute new ideas and promote new initiatives.
  • Associated with ordinary share of € 90.00, with voting rights and eligibility for office, discounts to classes, and the right to include a presentation if companies, craftsmen and professionals, in a page from the website of the Association.


We started to arrange the purchase of organic and biodynamic products, directed both to individuals and to groups of consumers that already exist. You can buy agricultural products directly from farms associated with, or products that we find in health food stores with discounts. We currently have a list essential, but it is intended to expand.


The Association intends to organize a showcase on the market for all members who have products to sell, it will participate in the markets bringing together member companies interested in selling their products. It also will include the companies' products in the list of consumer group inside the association.

Who is associated as an ordinary member and want to form an independent section (provincial or valley), he can. This is required by statute. He can take advantage of a brand name, asking for free inclusion in the Web site. The section will be funded by the Association for its activities, it has only a commitment to reporting the year-end function.

When the statute was drawn up we wanted to represent all of us, farmers, technicians and consumers. It is very important to tackle the problems together. We believe that the only way we succeed step by step to help our world.



Greetings to you all.

The President
Roberto Denart
