DLG North America to start operation

November 8, 2024 - A key part of DLG's internationalisation strategy, the establishment of the DLG North America subsidiary supports DLG's non-profit statue - in existence since 1885 - to promote farm management knowledge among farming professionals through international exhibition and networking platforms.

"Our new subsidiary DLG North America has been set up to serve farming professionals in North America. Also here, DLG will be developing exhibitions and events in the region and will be a bridge between North America and Europe, for the exchange of knowledge and innovation in the agricultural sector" says Jens Kremer, Managing Director of DLG International.

DLG North America will be drawing on DLG's exhibition expertise, which spans more than 135 years and today covers more than 30 agricultural trade fairs worldwide, including EuroTier, the trade fair for livestock technologies held in Germany every two years.

DLG North America will be launching American Dairy XPO, a trade fair that combines exhibition with farming knowledge delivered through conferences and interactive talks. The event will benefit from existing synergies of DLG's EuroTier livestock exhibition and the Canadian Dairy XPO (CDX) in Ontario, Canada, which was part of DLG's acquisition of Underhill Enterprise (UEI).

The work of DLG's 'Competence Center Agriculture', which covers farm management knowledge, international farmers surveys and a network of 3000 international experts, will benefit North American farming professional through the new DLG North America subsidiary.

Located in Frankfurt, Germany, the Competence Center Agriculture manages some 40 working groups of farmers, academics, agricultural equipment companies and organisations that continually compare advances in knowledge in specific areas such as irrigation and precision farming. The results are shared openly with the farming community and published in DLG Expert Knowledge series.

Through field trials, including crop rotation and irrigation, at DLG's International Crop Protection Centre, a 600-hectare farm in Bernburg-Strenzfeld, Germany, the DLG offers an important contribution to new farming knowledge.
