One of the most serious challenges for agriculture is generational change. As farming requires a serious and long-term commitment, the agricultural profession must be made more attractive by presenting the latest technologies to young people, Juhász Anikó told at the press conference announcing the 13th European Precision Farming Conference (ECPA) – the Ministry of Agriculture (AM) said on Thursday .

According to the statement, the Deputy State Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture emphasized that it is an important task for the sector to contribute to the well-being of society and the preservation of our created world while maintaining competitiveness. Digitization and precision farming are exactly what can best serve this purpose. In line with this, we were among the first in Europe to develop a Digital Agrarian Strategy (DAS). The ECPA to be held in Budapest can effectively contribute to the goals set in this – especially to increase the digital preparedness and innovation activity of our agriculture – Juhász Anikó said.
