The team is made-up by professional farmers that also use state-of-the-art precision agriculture techniques. The team is also involved with academic projects around Europe, eliminating any language barriers and offering international expertise.

    Our agricultural internship program offers agriculture/viticulture & graduates students the opportunity to gain top quality experience interning on the farm. With valuable experience, you’ll develop your skills and understanding of different farming aspects.
