Biological insurance

For centuries, regional breeds like Tyrolean Grey, Original Brown Swiss, and Pinzgau cattle have adapted to climate, landscape, and feed. They have learned to thrive with little, to live with heat, cold, and high altitudes. In a world that is becoming ever faster and more homogenized, they preserve what keeps us stable: genetic diversity. This diversity is not a trivial matter—it is our biological insurance. When diseases change or climate change shifts habitats, it is the robust, resilient genes of these old breeds that provide new solutions. Every lost lineage weakens the balance—in agriculture, in the animal kingdom, in the greater natural system.
