Numerous research institutes provide the results that constantly modernise organic farming.
An overview of the research projects supported by the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Regions and Water Management is available via www.dafne.at .
Below, a list of Austria’s most important research institutions:
- HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein

- Bundesanstalt für Agrarwirtschaft und Bergbauernfragen
- HBLA und Bundesamt für Wein und Obstbau
