CLAAS Foundation

The Foundation

Since its establishment in 1999, the CLAAS Foundation has been supporting young people in connection with agriculture education and related topics.

Pupils

The younger the children are when they get in touch with natural sciences, the more enthusiastic they become about them.

Students

We are pleased to meet students who are dedicated to their subject and work on exciting projects.

Universities

Supporting projects, improving teaching, maintaining and developping infrastructure - modern universities find it hard to meet all these requirements with their own resources.
