This event will offer you the opportunity to experience first-hand the way technology is helping to improve agricultural productivity and sustainability.

 The Farm visits will explain how:

• online decision-making tools support farmers in crop growing processes, 
• state-of-the-art systems improve operator safety and environmental protection during spraying activities, 
• digital platforms coordinate services from across the agri-food industry, and
• precision farming equipment such as an advanced potato planter, a precision slurry injector or the most modern tractors can greatly contribute to improving farm operations’ efficiency.

A BBQ at the end of the visit will give you the opportunity for an exchange of views with experts from Bayer, company representatives from the CEMA network, and the University of Ghent on the challenges and benefits this digital transformation is bringing to European farming.
