Vadoz hums

In February 2020, the municipal council approved the "Vadoz hums" project for the next four years. It aims to promote biodiversity by encouraging species diversity on agricultural land, at forest edges and in private gardens. The municipality is offering residents free advice from experts.

Insect mortality in Liechtenstein

The biodiversity of plants and insects has been declining worldwide for years - including in Liechtenstein. Monocultures and increasing land consumption are reducing the habitat of bees, butterflies and other insects. However, they make an important contribution to our food supply by pollinating wild and cultivated plants and thus securing harvests. The protection and promotion of species diversity and biodiversity are key tasks for the future. With the "Vadoz hums" project, the municipality aims to make a sustainable contribution to this.

Since the launch of "Vadoz hums" in autumn 2020, a total of 45,904 square meters have been converted into natural areas in Vaduz in the first year, i.e. flower meadows, natural gardens and natural field strips. That's the equivalent of 6.5 football pitches. All areas that bring more biodiversity and therefore more insects back to Vaduz. More private individuals need to register for the project so that private gardens also make up an entire football pitch.

Goals of "Vadoz hums"

Increase the diversity of insect and flowering plant species, as their food source
Enrich biodiversity on municipal and agricultural land, forest edges, built-up areas and in private gardens
