Berlin (dpa) - No animal shows, no brass music and no farmers from all over Germany: The Green Week is different for its 86th edition, namely online and as a specialist event.
Two days of conferences on the Internet are planned.
At the start this morning (9 a.m.), agriculture and the food industry want to describe the situation in the sector.
Groceries brought more sales in the German retail sector during the Corona crisis.
At the same time, however, in addition to travel restrictions in the Corona crisis, animal diseases such as African swine fever and avian influenza are slowing down the business of export-oriented companies.
In normal years, around 400,000 visitors come to the exhibition grounds at the Berlin radio tower on ten days of the fair to find out about agriculture, the food industry and horticulture.
The debate about the future of agriculture continues in the online format of the fair.
Among other things, it is about ways to more organic food and more animal and climate protection.
