At the beginning of the year, we had the pleasure of giving a presentation at the 30th Freckenhorst Berry Fruit Days to an interested audience of specialists from all over Germany. During the events, which lasted several days, the challenges of domestic fruit growing and, in particular, soft fruit growing were considered. The main focus was on the future of plant protection, dealing with climate change and the appreciation of local berries.

Using a practical example from the Rhineland, we presented the planning, operation and approval process of community irrigation projects. An automated, radio-controlled and permanently installed irrigation system is also becoming more and more popular in soft fruit growing. Due to the increasing number of dry years, there is a noticeable increase in interest among soft fruit growers.

Addressing this issue is a first step in being able to continue to secure local soft fruit. Domestic soft fruit production can be well equipped in the future for years with very low rainfall growing seasons through intelligent and efficient irrigation management.

On the Naturhof Wolfsberg, representatives of Mitsubishi Electric Germany were given a detailed insight into an automated and radio-controlled irrigation system. Mitsubishi Electric is one of the world's leading companies in the manufacture of electrical and electronic products and systems.

Close to Bonn, the Naturhof operates on an area of almost 30 hectares of organic pome fruit cultivation by using an efficient irrigation system.
Mitsubishi and Irriport are both sharing the visionary intention of jointly kick-starting automation systems in agricultural irrigation technology and building standardized systems.
The aim is to spread the jointly developed technologies not only in Germany, but also worldwide in the future.
