“Working together for the world of tomorrow”
The Netherlands is the second-largest exporter of agricultural goods in the world. There is a lot of knowledge available, and we have an innovative culture. Due to this, business is stimulated. Therefore, it is not without reason that the agri & food sector is an important sector for the international trade position of the Netherlands. Open cultivation plays a vital role within the agri & food sector. Cooperation within open field production is essential to tackle common themes: how do we ensure that we can continue responding to society’s ever-changing wishes? How do we maintain a solid competitive position in our sector? What should we do to keep open cultivation attractive for young entrepreneurs and increase interest in the sector? These and other overarching themes, regarding knowledge, business and innovation, are being discussed within the Agrofoodcluster.
Open field production is not only an important sector in the Netherlands but all over the world! That is why we are active both nationally and internationally.
