Field Days for Technology Transfer and Knowledge Exchange of Dealers and Farmers

Abstract

For the regional implementation of new land-use technologies, the practical cooperation of science, enterprises of the agricultural sector, machine builders and dealers are crucial. The knowledge exchange of these actors makes a great contribution to the introduction of new technology, their adaptation to regionally specific requirements and further development of innovative practices. 'Field days' have proven to be a very effective model in bringing engineers, dealers and farmers together to dispute over usage and perfection of new machines.
