The Bodensee organic farmers are a community of demeter farmers from the Lake Constance region. In an international comparison, the farms tend to be smaller and strive for a high degree of cultural diversity in the spirit of Demeter agriculture
on their farms.
This cultural work is more expensive than classic specializations such as grain. Only Oberkulmer Rotkorn and other traditional spelled varieties are used for the flour and pasta.
These varieties are characterized by extremely long stems. When modern spelled varieties were bred, the stalks were shortened by crossing them with wheat in order to create denser seed stocks and taller ones
enable income.
The yield potential per area is therefore lower for Oberkulmer Rotkorn and other original spelled varieties than for modern spelled-wheat hybrids.
A large amount of gluten protein is characteristic of the long-stemmed variety of Oberkulmer Rotkorn. In contrast to modern wheat and spelled varieties, which were bred for high dough stability, this spelled variety is the original
Protein composition: Many people with wheat intolerance can tolerate Oberkulmer Rotkorn and other traditional types of spelled well, but modern spelled-wheat hybrids usually cause the same symptoms as
with pure wheat.

What does demeter mean and what distinguishes demeter? Demeter is the oldest organic association in Germany. There have been farmers in this association who have practiced biodynamic agriculture since 1924. Biodynamic means that people, animals, plants and the soil all in one
natural and living cycle interact. This means that only as many animals are kept as the farm can feed on its land. The dung of the animals in turn ensures fertile soil. Food grows on this soil without chemicals. Demeter is arguably the most sustainable model of land management.
