Agricultural Engineering in Tropic and Transformation Countries
Agricultural Engineering in Transformation Countries
Abstract:
The agricultural production in Transformation countries is often dominated by small farms. The production of these farms is geared to their own use. The farms generate a significantly lower financial value per hectare land than in Western Europe countries.
In the past, many countries have invested in new agricultural machinery. More and more of the machinery is produced in the Transformation countries. The manufacturers are local companies as well as companies from West Europe with production capacities inside the Transformation countries.
There is a lively exchange of knowledge between the Transformation countries and the Western European States through exhibitions, conferences, and funding programs.
