Agritechnica 2025, the world’s leading trade fair for agricultural machinery, will take place November 9–15 at the Hanover Exhibition Grounds, Germany under the theme “Touch Smart Efficiency.” Organized by the DLG (German Agricultural Society), Agritechnica aims to provide professional visitors with direct access to innovative, connected farming systems that leverage digital technologies to enhance efficiency, sustainability and productivity. International events and networking are a significant part of that aim. The DLG expects around 2,700 exhibitors from more than 50 countries and some 430,000 visitors. The trade fair will once again offer a wide range of networking opportunities and special events, including the “International Get-Together” on Wednesday and the debut of the “Young Professionals Day” on Friday, November 14.

As the global hub for agricultural machinery, Agritechnica serves as a key information and business platform for professionals across agriculture, agricultural machinery trade, and R&D. This year marks the launch of the new theme days under the slogan “7 Days – 7 Topics,” each tailored to specific visitor groups. Each of the seven days will focus on a dedicated topic, enabling attendees to hone in on the most relevant technologies and discussions. By aligning with the daily topics, networking events will encourage more targeted conversations around key issues in crop production and agricultural machinery.
