Cultivation Experiments with Chinese Mountain Rice in the Bozen District in 1820
In 1820, cultivation experiments with Chinese mountain rice were carried out in the Bozen district. While trials in higher-altitude locations failed due to harsh weather and cold winds, locations such as Bozen, Lana, Meran, Andrian, and Tramin yielded positive results. District Captain Ritter von Hauer plans further trials in the Bozen valley plain in the coming year.
