BMEL - Digitalization in Agriculture

Framework


Initiator: Funding programmes:

One aim of the novel Framework Program BMEL-Digitalization in Agriculture is setting-up and shaping innovative Experimental Fields for digitalizing in agriculture covering all federal territories throughout Germany being mutal coordinated and associated. Particularly, the chances for digitalization througout all plant sizes are going to be unlocked benefitting the whole society and strengthening competitiveness in agriculture. A further matter of the Experimental Fields is the opening up of infrastructural prerequitites to analyse digital techniques and methods for the different agricultural farm structures and the scientific monitoring of the related tests. Moreover, the technology and knowledge transfer into agricultural practice as well as into pre- and post agricultural themes and to the general public is implemented.
