AI meets agriculture – and we’re on the right path!
From robotic mowers to fully autonomous harvesters, AI-driven solutions are already reshaping farming. And part of that innovation is happening right here at our Agri-PV research facility in Nußbach.
Using data collected by LTZ Augustenberg, the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) is developing an advanced algorithm to control Intech’s solar tracking system — adapting it precisely to the needs of the crops while maximizing solar energy yield.
A true win-win-win for agriculture, energy, and the environment.
High-Level Visit During Summer Tour
As part of his summer tour focused on AI in agriculture, Federal Minister Hubertus Heil visited our site yesterday — accompanied by more than 20 journalists.
We guided him through the facility, showcased our Agri-PV innovation, and even let him try his hand at harvesting blackberries under the PV system.
Innovation Meets Human Impact
The visit was a valuable exchange on the intersection of high-tech farming and sustainability, while also highlighting the people and purpose behind the technology.
We’re excited to see where this journey takes us and what positive ripple effects this visit might have sparked.
