DISRUPTIVE AGRICULTUREVISIONS FOR THE FUTURE

Look beyond the field! We raise questions and invite you to search for answers together. Today, agriculture not only faces everyday problems, but also new demands from consumers

and industry.

AGRONOMIC DATAALL EYES ON ME!

Satellites, drones or machines provide Big Data, through which knowledge about soil and plants can be gained quickly and objectively. But are they equally useful for

farmers, industry, agricultural politics and society?

BIOTECHDO WE WANT TO DO, WHAT WE CAN DO?

Our way of producing food must become more sustainable. This can only be achieved with new approaches, as

circumstances have never been like this before. A reorientation can only succeed with an entire set of

solutions.

Subject:

NEW NETWORKS FOR OLD COUNTRIESCREATING VALUE CHAIN NETWORKS

From farm to fork, new networks emerge. (Trade) routes become shorter and supply chains more flexible. The food

market of the future is decentralised and serves as a digital network that brings consumers and producers closer

together again.

It is not a question of digitizing agriculture at any price, but of a mindset change. Companies must make progress

possible instead of trying to sell new technology to farmers as often as possible.

WHAT'S BEHIND THE HYPE?OF ALTERNATIVE PROTEINS

The development in the alternative production of animal proteins is proceeding rapidly. Not only startups have long been involved, but also leading companies in conventional

production. But what is behind the hype?

The lack of funding in Germany makes life difficult for innovators. There is a lack of capital, investors, partnerships and networks. We ask: How can we build an ecosystem for

innovations in AgTech in Germany?
