Autonomous, adaptive agricultural systems are becoming increasingly important for practical farming, as the availability of qualified labour is decreasing and many new systems are able to react to changing conditions during the process with the help of sensors and control electronics. EuroTier 2024 is dedicated to this topic with this year's Barn Robot Event. At the world's leading trade fair for professional animal husbandry and livestock management, which takes place from 12 to 15 November in Hanover, Germany, automatic feed pushers for dairy and beef cattle will be presented in Hall 13. The digitization will also be the focus of the 16th Agricultural Workers' Day, which will take place on 14 November at the EuroTier exhibition grounds. The main theme of this year's event is: ‘AI and digitalisation in the agricultural sector - effects on the world of work’.

This year's Barn Robot Event,Hall 13, Stand F45, will be presented by the new DLG platform ‘FarmRobotix’. A combination of exhibition, live demonstrations, technical programme and netorking, FarmRobotix features comprehensive information on applied robotics, digitalisation, automation and AI in agriculture.

   

This year's Barn Robot Event is dedicated to the topic of automatic feed pushing in cattle housing. Visitors can experience the robots live in action on a simulated animal housing area. Moderated presentations in German will take place on each of the four event days - every 15 minutes - from 11 am to 12.30 pm. Presentations in English will take place from 2 pm to 3.30 pm. Company representatives will be on hand during the live sessions to interact with visitors and provide further information about the feed pusher robots.

Confirmed exhibitors to present their automatic feed pushers at EuroTier 2024:

The ‘Barn Robot Event’ is organised in close cooperation between the Chamber of Agriculture of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, the University of Bonn and the DLG and takes place every two years at the Düsser Milchviehtage in February and EuroTier in November in Hanover, each event with a different theme.

   

The 16th Agricultural Workers' Day, held in German and organised by the Lower Saxony Chamber of Agriculture, will be held as an in-person and digital event on 14 November at EuroTier. Under the motto: ‘AI and digitalisation in the agricultural sector - effects on the world of work’, interested visitors can discover the likely working world of the future. The event begins on 14 November at 9 a.m. in the Convention Center at the Hannover Exhibition Grounds. The event will be opened by Lower Saxony's Minister for Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection, Miriam Staudte, and Gerhard Schwetje, President of the Lower Saxony Chamber of Agriculture. This will be followed by three presentations on the topics: ‘AI and digitalisation in the agricultural sector - trends and their impact’, ‘What does the young generation expect? - Impulse of the Agricultural Committee of Lower Saxony's Rural Youth’ and “AI in agriculture - practical experience”. The event ends at 12.30 pm.
