When you drive through the countryside you will begin to see what is meant by
cultural landscape in South Tyrol. It is the well-tended and ploughed soil, the perfectly neat rows of
fruit trees, the
vineyards elegantly draped down gentle slopes, the mowed mountain pastures, the
cows in the meadows, the tidy farmhouses, the flowers growing on the balconies, the old and new stables with their special design, the air of calm and content that typifies the South Tyrolean rural landscape, even when tractors chug along and the signs of hard work and day to day worry can be read in local faces.
You will be hard pressed to find another place in the world that has such well-kept cultivable soil – right down to the last square metre, tended by hands that have centuries of experience of living in harmony with nature.
South Tyrol’s farmers typically have
small farms and a lot of them supplement their income by carrying out
additional work.
