Digitalisation
Whether in rural development, agriculture, forestry or the food industry – the possibilities provided by digital technologies are being used intensively throughout Germany: the introduction of digital technologies already contributes to producing food more sustainably, preventing emissions, improving animal welfare and keeping rural areas attractive.
Looking ahead, drones, clouds and other innovations promise many new visions and opportunities. But how can we make the best possible use of these opportunities? How can the risks related to the digital transformation be controlled? We need to find sustainable answers to data protection, data security and data sovereignty issues. This places heavy demands on politics and society.
