North Rhine-Westphalia: Agricultural engine in the heart of Europe

North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) is one of Germany's most diverse agricultural and economic regions. Its fertile soil, temperate climate and excellent infrastructure create optimal conditions and have made the region an important producer of milk, meat, cereal crops, vegetables and fruit.

From the Westphalian Lowlands to the hilly Sauerland: each region contributes in its own way to the strength of regional and European agriculture.

High-level production

  • Livestock farming – Milk and meat from NRW rank among the very best in Germany and are exported to markets throughout Europe.
  • Arable farming – Wheat, maize and sugar beet are the main crops, thanks to modern cultivation methods and efficient production.
  • Horticulture – The Rhineland is known for high quality asparagus, strawberries and apples.
  • Innovation and sustainability – Precision agriculture, biogas plants and environmentally friendly methods are rapidly gaining ground.

Strategically located for European trade

The important trade route offered by the Rhine, a dense motorway network and direct rail connections to other EU countries make NRW a central logistics hub in Europe. Agricultural produce can be exported to neighbouring countries and international markets with ease and speed.

Language is the key to success

Agriculture in NRW is highly internationally oriented. Companies there work with partners from all over Europe, export their products and import technology and knowledge.
