The agriculture of tomorrow: efficient, climate-friendly and smart. How can we make arable farming fit for the future and competitive? Together with our partners, the Bavarian Farmers' Association (BBV) and the Landshut Agricultural Machinery School, we dare to take an open look at new technologies, in-depth research and practical agricultural experience with digital technologies.
Barbara Steinberger is a farmer and agricultural influencer from Lower Bavaria. She runs an arable farm with seed propagation. The focus of her daily work is on the interplay between modern technology and sustainable agriculture. In her presentation, she shares her experiences from her own family farm and her time at the agricultural technology company Horsch.
Moderation
You can expect exciting insights into current developments in arable farming. The focus will be on the use of digital technologies for greater efficiency and sustainability. Representatives from the Bavarian state farms, BBVnextgeneration, the agricultural industry and geodata processing will be discussing the topic.
Lennart Kehrberger,
Agriculture faces the challenge of securing yields while protecting groundwater and drinking water from nitrate inputs. One key to this lies in taking spatial variability into account: soils, plant growth and nutrient dynamics often differ greatly within a field. By using digital technologies, sensor data and model approaches, these differences can be made visible and managed in a targeted manner.
Using current research and practical examples, the presentation will show how precision agriculture and data-based decision support can help to control fertilization in a site-specific manner, reduce nutrient losses and thus make an active contribution to drinking water protection.
The ALB irrigation app was developed on behalf of the StMELF. The web-based decision-making tool helps farmers and growers of fruit and vegetables to precisely calculate the best irrigation time and the right amount of water. Among other things, measurement data from 680 weather stations, soil quality, the irrigation technology used and data on the crop grown are taken into account. This ensures crop yields and quality while limiting water consumption to what is absolutely necessary.
The aim is to control the use of water so that irrigation only takes place when the available soil supply has been used up and the plants can just about tolerate the degree of soil drying out. Only the soil area rooted by the plants should receive water, useless seepage is avoided. As a planning tool, the app supports agricultural authorities in the approval of water withdrawals and helps engineering firms with the dimensioning of new irrigation systems.
Agriculture will face enormous challenges in 2025: rising cost pressure, stricter sustainability requirements and increasing pests due to climate change. At the same time, new bans on rat bait and rodenticides will lead to further restrictions on the use of traditional pesticides. Digital technologies are opening up completely new possibilities here.
In his presentation, Tim Kirchhof, founder and CEO of traplinked GmbH, will show how modern sensor technology, IoT systems and data-driven solutions are revolutionizing pest control. Using specific practical examples from agriculture and the food industry, he will illustrate how digital monitoring systems not only detect pests at an early stage, but also significantly reduce the use of rodenticides, secure yields and establish sustainable standards in rodent control. A look into the future shows what role artificial intelligence, networking and automation will play in pest control in 2025 - and how farmers can work productively and in compliance with regulations, perhaps even more efficiently and cost-effectively, despite BUD bans.
