4evergreen is an early adapter of developments in automation and digitalization. We invest in automation and innovation and like to keep innovating and improving. 4evergreen works with unmanned self-propelled forklifts and self-propelled harvesters. Everything is automated and robotized as much as possible. In addition, we are fully engaged with (big) data to optimize processes and we are steering towards autonomous growing.
