Success requires diversity
Agriculture faces major challenges: decreasing numbers of farms, a shortage of skilled workers, and a growing need for sustainable solutions. What is needed now is diversity—in thinking, in action, and in perspectives. This is where you come in.

Studying agricultural sciences as a young woman was the best decision I could have made. Today, I am absolutely satisfied and fulfilled with my position in my husband's farming business - including with regard to my other goals in life.

Agriculture, in its great diversity, is one of the most interesting industries, in which people work with all their strength for the farms and companies. For me, agriculture is more than just a profession or a subject area, but an absolute vocation and a matter of the heart.
