Agriculture

Digitalisation, Labour Management and Process Technology    

We develop solution proposals for the challenges facing agriculture in the areas of digitalisation, labour management and process technology. Our goal is to improve the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural operations through innovative technologies and work processes.

Our technical work in the fields of digitalisation, labour management and process technology serves the exchange of information and experience on methods and developments in the fields of digitalisation, labour management and process technology across national borders. We also discuss current topics relating to increasing efficiency and quality assurance in agriculture. It is also important to disseminate a wide range of experience in the form of DLG leaflets and to organise forums at AGRITECHNICA.
