About agriculture in Herisau
Herisau is situated in the rolling hills of the Appenzell region in eastern Switzerland. As the administrative center of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, it is surrounded by a scenic landscape of green meadows, scattered farmsteads, and the distinctive pre-Alpine terrain that transitions into higher mountain ranges to the south.
The local agricultural sector is primarily focused on dairy farming and livestock breeding. The lush pastures are ideal for cattle grazing, which supports a long-standing tradition of cheese production and milk processing. Small-scale mixed farming, including some fruit cultivation and forestry in the wooded hills, also contributes to the rural economy.
For agricultural specialists and seasonal workers, the area offers opportunities mainly in animal husbandry and pasture management. Demand for labor typically peaks during the haymaking season and when livestock are moved to higher altitudes. Workers can expect a professional environment rooted in traditional Swiss farming methods and high standards of animal welfare.
