Round the World - Denmark

As part of Agri-TechE's "Round the World" series, we’re excited to invite you to join us on our next journey as we explore and learn about our next major agri-tech market - Denmark.

In the near future Danish agriculture will undergo significant changes adopting new greener technologies while at the same time strive to remain productive and competitive.

In 2030 a tax on methane will be introduced for livestock production in Denmark. This incentivises adoption of emission mitigating technologies. At the time it is a declared goal that Danish farmers maintain both their productivity and profitability.

Some solutions need to be developed, some are already being implemented and has proven their worth in actual production.

Benefits are not confined to reducing methane emissions but also increases input efficiency e.g. feed efficiency, animal welfare and animal health and productivity/output. 

The Danish Embassy and Danish Agro Industry would like to present the “Danish way” of food production to the UK audience with a particular emphasis on dairy production and arable farming.

 

The Danish agro-industry is among the best in the world for developing solutions for future food production. Thus, the Danish agro-industry contributes to the fact that the world's population growth "can be done" and that both the Danish and foreign farmers reach their climate goals.

Strengthening the cooperation between Danish and British farmers and authorities is the goal of the Danish Embassy for the years to come. It is the plan to bring British stakeholders to Denmark to visit farmers who successfully have adopted new greener technologies and vice versa.

Take off on a virtual adventure with us as we “fly” to Denmark to:

• Learn about the Transition of Danish agricultural production
  An overview of the ongoing transformation of Danish agricultural production - current developments and future outlook.

• Get insights into the Danish Agroindustry
  An introduction to key technologies and companies driving the green transition in Danish agriculture, while maintaining continued profitability and productivity for Danish farmers - with a special focus on dairy and arable farming sectors.

• Hear next steps in DK-UK Collaboration
  Discussion of upcoming opportunities, including planned inbound and outbound visits.

The event is organised in partnership with Embassy of Denmark and Danish Agro Industry.
