Researching for the bioeconomy

Our Vision

A circular, diverse, innovative and sustainable bioeconomy produces healthy food for all, operates on the basis of renewable raw materials and facilitates the realisation of One Health for humans, animals and the environment.

Our Mission

The Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy (ATB) is a pioneer and a driver of systemic-technological bioeconomy research.
We create the scientific foundation for the transformation of agricultural, food, other industrial and energy systems into a sustainable bio-based circular economy.
We develop, deploy and integrate technologies, techniques, processes and management strategies, strategically integrate a variety of bioeconomic production systems within a comprehensive system approach and manage them in a knowledge-driven, adaptive and extensively automated way using converging technologies.
We conduct research in dialogue with society, policymakers, industry and other stakeholders - knowledge-driven and application-inspired.
