The issue of biodiversity is shaking up the industry: Trade fair offers platform for exchange

Complex topics such as biodiversity and digitalization are a hot topic of discussion among fruit growers and farmers. From February 14 to 16, 2020, Fruchtwelt Bodensee offers an international platform for exchange. Some 370 exhibitors will have an extensive range of products on display and, along with experts from the supporting lecture program of the Lake Constance Fruit Growing Days, will be informing visitors about new solutions and trends in agriculture, cultivation technology, and processing methods. Dr. Wilhelm Kremer-Schillings, a farmer from Germany’s Lower Rhine region known in blogging circles as “Farmer Willi,” has announced his intention of giving a presentation on the Friday of the fair.  

The next meeting for fruit growers, farmers and distillers at Lake Constance will take place from February 14 to 16, 2020 in Friedrichshafen.
