In the EU project WeLASER, research institutions, companies and non-governmental organizations from the agricultural sector from eight EU countries are working on a laser-based alternative for weed management. On October 20, the project team met at LZH.

In addition to the substantive program, the participants were able to exchange ideas and, of course, visit the shop floor, the machinery and the new greenhouse at LZH. After a short tour, which included a demonstration of the laser tool for weed treatment at LZH, there was then a get-together in the evening for further exchange.
