Katharina Schobersberger
She is 25 years old and works at a Rural Education Institute in Vienna while living on a farm in Upper Austria. The farm specialises in breeding sows that are fed with cereals from their own production, which is characteristic of Austrian agriculture. Additionally, she has pursued studies in organic agriculture systems and is currently finishing writing her Master’s thesis on the potential effects of probiotics on the behaviour, health, and productivity of piglets. However, she also gains valuable knowledge through hands-on work on her family’s farm. In her local area, she observes that the rural youth upholds and innovates traditions, fosters connections between individuals from diverse backgrounds, and contributes added value to the countryside.
