Agro Campus Brabant established by leaders from all agricultural sectors in North Brabant.

Agro Campus Brabant: learn and relax at the farm


There is a rapidly growing need for knowledge about where our food comes from and how it is produced. Not only among citizens and consumers, but also in (green) education. The knowledge of farmers and horticulturalists is central to this. That knowledge is scarce. That knowledge is valuable. Any group of visitors who want to learn about where our food comes from is welcome. The Agro Campus network of farmers meets that need!

30 locations in Brabant
The aim is to have a network of 10 to 30 Agro Campus locations in North Brabant by 2023. These are existing, operational farms, ranging from pig farming to fruit growing, which have been set up as agricultural knowledge centres with an experiential element.

Business groups
The target group is business visitors and students of green education. They gain transparent insight into where our food comes from through the farm experience. Each location is equipped to receive groups of business visitors in an educational manner. The companies have professional facilities for viewing the business, receiving groups, hosting meeting rooms, giving guided tours, organising team outings, supervising educational groups and overnight stays on the farm.

The Agro Campus website will go live on 1 January 2023.

Demo Project Plant Material and Field Trip Delphy

On 9 January 2026, Van der Avoird Trayplant will host an organised excursion to explain aspects of the European PlantGoed project. This day will be combined with a Delphy field trip, during which Van der Avoird Trayplant's various production facilities and cultivation techniques will be presented. 

The European PlantGoed project is an Interreg project (Flanders–Netherlands) that focuses on the development of innovative and sustainable solutions for the year-round production of soft fruits, such as strawberries and raspberries. The central focus is on improving and refining tailor-made plant propagation techniques. The project aims to increase efficiency and sustainability within the soft fruit sector through system innovation, with a strong focus on local and regional cooperation between research, growers and other chain partners.

NED Customer evening 

23-10-2025

On Thursday 23 October, NED Personeel and v.d. Avoird Trayplant jointly organised a knowledge event on the theme of “The new temporary employment” from 1 January 2026.

The rules in the temporary employment sector will be significantly tightened from 2026 onwards. Equal terms of employment, the new pension scheme, the shortened phase system, the Flexible Workers (Greater Security) Act and the WTTA admission requirement. Naturally, this will also have consequences for Trayplant. What consequences? In any case, we are now well prepared. Partly thanks to the knowledge of NED Personeel.
