Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the planned pig barn is zone-compliant in the agricultural zone
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The project did not show the required predominating soil dependence of the pig operation and therefore did not meet the purpose of the agricultural zone.
Extrahierte Begründung
For animal housing to be zone-compliant, feed must predominantly come from the operator's own or leased cultivated land. The evidence showed that only about 5-6 hectares would serve feed production, while the operation relied also on purchased feed and kitchen waste; predominating soil dependence was not established.
