Anbautipps

Chestnuts are highly perishable (40-50% moisture content); refrigerate at 0-2C immediately after harvest or process within days.

NEVER plant on alkaline or poorly drained soils — chestnuts are extremely sensitive to lime-induced chlorosis and Phytophthora.

Chestnuts are an excellent agroforestry crop; the canopy allows enough light for understory grazing or shade-tolerant crops.
