Two special formats focus on dairy. At the Barn Robot Event, manufacturers demonstrate milking robots live: depending on the system, cows enter the robot voluntarily, where sensors identify the animal, attach the milking equipment and complete milking automatically. The new EuroTier Milky Way format covers innovations across the entire dairy value chain, from genetics, housing and feeding to milking technology, processing and marketing.

The fair features 40 award-winning innovations and 32 start-ups from 12 countries. The technical programme covers animal health, biosecurity, emissions reduction, feeding efficiency and sustainable farm management. EnergyDecentral (farm energy) and Inhouse Farming – Feed & Food Show (alternative proteins and new value chains) are co-located with EuroTier.
