General Development Efficient fuel use in agricultural Technology - EKoTech

The reduction of emissions that are harmful to climate and health is becoming increasingly important. Since great progress has already been made in the field of engines and machines, and if only slight progress is to be expected, it is now necessary to extend the consideration. In the field of agriculture, many opportunities for optimization are available throughout the entire process chain. If these chains are considered holistically, there are great potentials for saving fuel and emissions. This is where the EKoTech project starts. It analyzes the existing processes, shows their development and shows possibilities for increasing efficiency. The results will lead to recommendations for action. The close cooperation between industry and science is thus to be made available to the user and enable industry and research to advance innovations in the agricultural process.
