EuroTier is the world’s leading trade fair for professional animal husbandry and will take place from November 12 to 15, 2024 at the exhibition grounds in Hanover, Germany. In line with this year’s main theme “We innovate animal farming”, the innovation platform of the global livestock industry is dedicated to the advancing automation in livestock housing. As part of FarmRobotix – the new DLG platform for robotics, digitalization, automation and AI in agriculture – visitors to the “Barn Robot Event” will be able experience automatic feed pushers live in action.
Autonomous, adaptive agricultural systems are becoming increasingly important for practical farming, as the availability of qualified workers is decreasing and many new systems are able to react to changing conditions during the process with the help of sensors. This development is not only taking place in the field, but also in the barn with the aim of improving animal welfare, reducing environmental pollution, optimizing working conditions and ensuring profitability.
FarmRobotix, the new DLG platform for robotics, AI and automation
EuroTier organizer, the DLG (German Agricultural Society), has been dedicated to promoting the use of agricultural robots for many years. With FarmRobotix, it has now created a new platform for robotics, digitalization, automation and AI in agriculture, with the aim of offering a forum for knowledge transfer and networking. At EuroTier 2024, FarmRobotix will incorporate exhibits and professional presentations as well as live demonstrations.
In addition to daily presentations on the DLG Expert Stage, visitors can experience robots in action on special demo areas and gain practical insights into the operation of autonomous agricultural vehicles and equipment.
Barn Robot Event: Automatic feed pusher for the cattle barn
As part of EuroTier 2024, the “Barn Robot Event” will explore automatic feed pushing in cattle barns. The robots will be demonstrated in practical use on a dedicated area in Hall 13. During the live demonstrations, visitors will be able to learn how automatic feed pushers can support cattle farmers in their work. The live demonstrations are moderated, in German in the morning and in English in the afternoon over the four exhibition days.
Seven exhibitors have already signed up to present their automatic feed pushers at EuroTier 2024:
- Lely: Juno J2
- Sveaverken: RoboPusher Nimbo
- Cooperl/CRD: Alim‘ Concept
- Rovibec: Ranger
- Schauer: Faro
- JOZ: Moov 2.0
- Wasserbauer: Butler Gold Pro
Company representatives will be present during the live demonstrations of the individual feed pushers and will provide information about their products. Visitors will have ample opportunity to ask questions and obtain more information about the feed pusher robots.
The “Barn Robot Event” is organized in close cooperation between the Chamber of Agriculture of North Rhine-Westphalia, the University of Bonn and the DLG and takes place every two years at the Düsser Milchviehtage (Düsser dairy days) and EuroTier in Hanover, eacht with its own focus..
