Know- how and Technology Transfer in India

In order to achieve the project goal, VOGT Baugeräte GmbH will cooperate closely with Indian educational institutions. On the one hand, employees of the University of Agriculture Sciences receive multiplier training, first in cooperation with VOGT Baugeräte GmbH, then increasingly independently of it, to offer theoretical and practical training for agricultural economists and farmers. These courses should also be attended by university students and establish themselves as a new elective.

Project Target

The aim of the project in the southern Indian state of Karnataka is to educate Indian farmers (including small and micro farmers) and students and pupils in the agricultural sector about more sustainable methods of tillage and to provide them with a modern technology that not only treats the soil more environmentally friendly but also significantly increases crop yields and minimises expenditure on fertilisers and artificial irrigation.
