(DLG). This year, Agritechnica, the largest agricultural trade fair for agricultural machinery, is partnering with the 10th PREGA conference in Hungary 4-5 February, which focuses on practical aspects of digital farming: increasing efficiency by optimizing farming practices. The partnership is part of a wider 2025 campaign by the DLG (German Agricultural Society), the organizer of the Agritechnica, to promote knowledge about digital farming, a topic that will be featured in-depth at the new Digital Farming Center at Agritechnica, 9-15 November, in Hanover, Germany.
Like their European colleagues, Hungarian farmers are increasingly looking to digital farming to solve many of the challenges facing the farming profession, including societal and consumer pressure, input costs and legislation. The organizer of the 10th PREGA conference, agroinform.hu designed the program to offer practical approaches and present technical solutions in digital and precision farming.
“Agritechnica’s partnership with the 10th PREGA conference is especially relevant for this year’s edition. In November, Agritechnica will present its new Digital Farming Center which will showcase the most relevant and newest solutions in precision and smart farming as well as the trends for the future, “ says Dr. Olga Hunger, Regional Director Eastern Europe, DLG e.V..
The two-day PREGA conference in Kecskemet, Hungary on 4 and 5 February will offer some 600 participants a mix of keynote speeches, plenary discussions and presentations alongside the exhibition. With more than 100 invited speakers, the program will feature practical results: presentations from farmers that have already implemented precision farming on a wide scale. These farmers will detail how the new processes have positively affected their productivity and profits.
Further topics covered at PREGA 2025: Digital developments and experiences in agricultural record keeping, regenerative farming, smart-till and answers to questions – what, when and how to plant to minimize losses due to pests? Cross-sectoral agricultural knowledge transfer: what can we learn from each other?
Agritechnica is a popular event among Hungarian farmers, attracting some 2500 visitors at the last event.
The new “Digital Farm Center – presented by FarmRobotix” is the centre of excellence at Agritechnica for robotics, automation, AI, drones and precision farming for crop production. Located at the center of the trade fair and organized according to core agricultural areas like harvesting and soil cultivation, the latest technologies will be presented in the Digital Farm Center “to touch” and inspect close-up. Under the guiding theme of Agritechnica 2025 is “Touch Smart Efficiency” Agritechnica 2025 aims to offer visitors direct access to innovative, connected agricultural systems that employ digital technologies to maintain productivity as well as increase efficiency and sustainability for a hands-on, interactive and tangible experience.
