Agriculture
Discover modern agriculture on our EventFarm
Welcome to the Event Farm.
Here, visitors experience modern agriculture in all its facets. Nutrition, technology and nature interconnect in many different ways. The Event Farm shows where food comes from, how female and male farmers work, and which innovations are shaping the agriculture of tomorrow.
Many stations invite visitors to experience agriculture in the truest sense of the word. At the stands, people from the agricultural sector explain their work, products can be tasted, and modern technology can be discovered up close. The content is ideal for families, school classes and everyone who is interested in nutrition and sustainability.
A special highlight are the discovery paths. They start at a digital module that shows which area of interest visitors feel particularly connected to: animals, technology, nature or soil. Afterwards, selected stations lead through the hall, where questions can be answered and discovery tokens can be collected. The tokens can be exchanged for a free drink at the rest area. A collectible cup with an agricultural motif also awaits as a souvenir.
The discovery paths make the visit interactive and illustrate in a vivid way how diverse agriculture is today.
On the stage, visitors can look forward to talks, live demonstrations and plenty of eye-opening moments. Throughout the hall, AgrarScouts are available to answer questions. These scouts are farmers from across Germany who offer clear, accessible explanations and engage directly with visitors.
The Event Farm makes agriculture tangible and easy to understand, inviting everyone to explore the full diversity of modern farming.
To help you find your way around easily, here is the floor plan of our exhibition area. All stations, stages and interactive points are clearly marked.

What is the Event Farm?
The Event Farm is a joint project of the Forum Moderne Landwirtschaft and more than 70 partners from the agriculture and food sectors. In Hall 3.2 at Grüne Woche, they present modern agriculture in a clear, engaging and interactive way. The exhibition showcases the entire value chain – from seed to bread roll, from barn to supermarket. Visitors learn how food is produced, which role technology and innovation play, and how agriculture contributes to animal welfare, climate action and nature conservation.The Event Farm is the central meeting place for dialogue on modern agriculture, bringing together representatives from society and politics.
Who is the Event Farm designed for?

What can visitors experience on site?
There are numerous interactive stations, tastings, modern agricultural machinery, insights into crop and livestock farming, and information on climate, nature and species protection. The stage hosts talks and live demonstrations.
What are the Discovery Trails?
The Discovery Trails are an interactive experience starting at a digital module. There, visitors find out which topic they are most interested in: animals, technology, nature or soil.
