Nauen, northwest of Berlin, Germany
AGRO-FARM GmbH Nauen
I’m a fourth-generation farmer and I’ve never done anything else. When I was six, my father gave me my first hoe and I was considered part of the team. Compared with the time that Grandpa Kahle, my great- great-grandfather, ran the farm, the challenges have changed quite dramatically. That’s why we need competent partners, in-depth specialist knowledge, and viable concepts to be able to farm in a sustainable and economical manner – both now and in the future. I believe that a lot of people who might not be involved in agriculture on a daily basis would like to know how modern agriculture functions in practice nowadays. It is especially important for me to reach them and to inform them about my values and methods. That’s why I create the opportunity on my farm for people to see what modern agriculture is really like: efficient and sustainable.
