Agriculture
The Hagerhof is a real farm with a cattle shed. We have around 45 animals in our herd. The breed is called German Fleckvieh which derived from the breed German Simmental and is a dual-purpose breed. We raise all calves that are born on our farm as well as many female calves we purchase. Here, they're bred and will give birth to their first calf. Only after a cow has born a calf will she give milk. We feed the milk to the calves and keep the cows until the next cattle market. You're welcome to come with us to Traunstein where we auction off the cows. Our cows are valuable breeding cows and will receive a new place in a different herd.
We produce milk of high quality, but we don't sell it traditionally anymore. All dairy farmers in the area deliver their milk to the private cheese dairy Bergader. They make brand quality cheese out of our milk. The most well-known cheeses are Bavaria Blu, Bergader Edelpilz and Bonifaz.
We are a grassland farm with a small portion of grain farming and forest management. We can cover all of our wood needs with wood from our own forest.
