• New sector groups in Hall 21,
including tractors, ministries,
federations and associations,
organisations and DLG,
including Campus & Career
and the International Visitors’
Lounge.
• Technology for organic fertilizing
is now located in Halls 22 and 23.
• Hall 15 has been expanded to
make room for more precision
farming technology and agri-
cultural software..
• Systems & Components now
occupies Halls 15 (north part),
16, 17 and 18
The new floor plan guarantees
easy orientation and helps visitors
to make optimal use of their day
at the fair. A free shuttle service is
also available on the grounds to
take visitors to the individual halls
they wish to visit.
