From June 10th to 12th, we received representatives of the Asociación Argentina de Productores de Siembra Directa (AAPRESID - Argentine Association of No-till Producers), who carried out a technical and commercial mission in North Rhine-Westphalia with the aim of promoting networks and exchanges to encourage sustainable agricultural production systems based on the no-till model.

The mission, led by Andrés Madias (I+D Manager) and Hernan Dillon (Partner and member of the Steering Committee), included the following points:

- Visit to the bioeconomy area and the crop production center in Jülich.

- Visits to no-till associations and producers in the cities of Ennigerloh, Senden and Haltern am See

- Scientific lecture on no-till farming in Argentina at the Center for Development Research (ZEF) at the University of Bonn.

We would like to thank the AAPRESID representatives for their visit to the region and the excellent researchers Marcelo Sili and Jochen Dürr for organizing these fruitful meetings.
