Ziegler Organic has always acted as financial partner for investments of rural cooperatives, enabling them oin the oine hand to stay independejnt in their deicsions, omn the other hand capable to participate directly in global deliveries. To allow the farmers the possibility to decide, grow and remain independent has always been a central value of founder Christof G\u00f6tz and it has remained so until today.<\/p>\n

small-scale famrers are helped by microcrediting while keeping their full independency to decide about their own steps in the development of their rural community.<\/p>\n
