PREFACE
The 73rd conference LAND.TECHNIK – AgEng 2015
will take place in Hannover on November 6th–7th,
2015. It is organised once again in cooperation
with the Max-Eyth- Society for Agricultural
­Engineering of the VDI (VDI-MEG) and the
­European Society of Agricultural Engineers
­(EurAgEng).
In accordance with the tradition of the last years,
the annual conference is arranged every two years
as a prelude to the worldwide most important
exhibition for agricultural machinery and
­equipment, the AGRITECHNICA, which starts on
November 8th, 2015 with the exclusive preview
days. This concept is successfully accepted from
education/academia and industry, both national
and international. The number of participants grew

to over 950 in 2013. Therefore, this conference is
still the most important event for the international
community of agricultural engineers.
The motto of the 73rd conference LAND.TECHNIK is
“Innovations in Agricultural Engineering for
Efficient Farming”. It underlines one of the main
aims of agricultural engineering: efficient and
sustainable production of high quality food.
The conference will give an excellent platform for
discussing new technologies, processes and
machines for efficient farming.
