Our brands are firmly rooted in the everyday lives of farmers, hunters, foresters, beekeepers, and gardening enthusiasts.

For example, the rural population was taught to read and write by means of the "Bayerisches Landwirtschaftliches Wochenblatt" (Bavarian Agricultural Weekly) at the time of its foundation in 1810, and since then it has become one of the highest-circulation agricultural trade journals in Germany. Its counterpart in northern Germany is Land&Forst, but younger brands such as kraut&rüben, bienen&natur, PIRSCH, AGRARTECHNIK or the wide-reaching online portal agrarheute are also firmly established as guides in the daily routine of their readers/users – below you will find an overview of our national brands.

Our goal is to build a bridge between agriculture and society, between producers and consumers, between city and countryside.

Our awards provide a high-profile platform that shines a well-deserved spotlight on the important achievements of the agriculture, forestry, and agricultural technology sectors. In this way, we strengthen the reputation of farmers – and other players in the green industry – as a key part of society, and promote the exchange of values and knowledge between farmers, trade, industry, politics and the public.
