Who are you? The Limburg Land and Horticulture Association (LLTB) is the advocate for farmers in Limburg. The association takes position at the interface between the entrepreneur and society.
What do you do? We represent the interests of our members, support members in good entrepreneurship, and indicate the social importance of the agricultural sector for Limburg.
For whom? For entrepreneurs in the Limburg agriculture, horticulture and agribusiness sectors.
Other info. Farmers and gardeners work incredibly hard every day for our food, the landscape, and society as a whole. Agriculture and horticulture are part of the solutions to many challenges facing society as a whole. From healthy food to employment, from economic growth to climate challenges and from keeping the countryside livable to ensuring a green living environment. Farmers and horticulturalists keep Limburg healthy!
Intersections
The agricultural sector does not shy away from societal tasks and extends a hand to regional stakeholders - as we call our partners in the region in our new direction document Kompas 2030 - to innovate together and bridge challenges. ShiftLimburg can serve as an important tool in this regard. More information about Compass 2030 can be found here.
