Research Stations and Institutes to Precision Agriculture (and alike)
These links are a result of my personal search for agricultural experimental stations and other agricultural research institutes both working on precision agriculture. With the help of the linked pages I judged if the institution could be a possible partner for discussions about the of IKB-Dürnast.
So you are pleased to use my link collection. But I give no guarantee for correctness of the links. In addition the comments are research keywords and descriptions which helped me to remember which research is going on there. So they don't represent nither the main nor the official research aims!
