Scheduled for October 16-18, 2026, in Brussels, this hackathon will bring together farmers, data analysts, developers, researchers, and policy experts from across the EU. Participants will collaborate to create digital tools that simplify agricultural processes and enhance sustainability.
Challenges
The hackathon will focus on three main challenges:

- Data Management: Teams will develop tools to help farmers manage and utilize the vast amounts of data generated by modern agricultural practices, transforming it into actionable insights.
- Information Sharing: Solutions will be created to streamline communication between farmers and their value chain partners, ensuring that farmers maintain control over their data while reducing reporting burdens.
Benefits
Participants will benefit from mentoring sessions, networking opportunities, and the chance to showcase their solutions at the EU Agri-Food Days conference. The winning teams will receive recognition and the opportunity to pitch their ideas to key stakeholders in the agricultural sector. This event not only aims to innovate but also to empower the next generation of agricultural professionals in Europe.
