Öko-Feldtage 2023 – in two months’ time

Preparations for the Öko-Feldtage 2023 are in full swing, the program is growing and thriving and is expected to be online from calendar week 17 (end of April). 320 companies, associations and organizations will be presenting seeds, agricultural technology, operating resources, feed, stable construction, advisory services and much more. Our Programme presents a mix of topics on the outstanding issues of organic farming

The modern organic farm Grieshaber & Schmid focuses on arable farming, field vegetable cultivation and dairy farming. These and other topics are also reflected in the varied program of the Öko-Feldtage. For example, machine demonstrations will provide practical insights into new hoeing techniques in a celery crop. Both tractor-guided and autonomous machines will be used. Various institutions will be presenting efficient irrigation techniques including modern forecasting models on more than one hectare. Other specialist topics include weed control and ridge construction as well as the influence of different planting material qualities in potato cultivation.
For the first time, visitors to the Öko-Feldtage can also find out about alternative energy sources and view agrivoltaic demo systems. Guided tours of the special area and lectures in the Programme will shed light on the topic from all sides.
“The Öko-Feldtage 2023 in Baden-Württemberg with its focus on field vegetables and agri-photovoltaics will appeal to completely new target groups this year,” says Carsten Veller, Program and Network Project Lead. In addition, the event’s program and exhibitors reflect the full breadth of sustainable agriculture, ranging from crop cultivation and animal husbandry to marketing and research. Numerous photos of the Grieshaber Schmid organic farm are available in the press area.
