150th anniversary of LUFA Speyer
Celebrate with us: 150 years for agriculture, the environment and consumer protection
This year we are celebrating our 150th anniversary. Founded in 1875, in times of strong population growth and malnutrition and even famine, the work of LUFA Speyer contributed to the food security of the population. Then as now, agriculture is at the heart of our work. As a company owned by the District Association of the Palatinate, it is our task to contribute to effective environmental and consumer protection in agriculture and forestry.
Celebrate with us at our open day on 28.09.2025 and visit our anniversary lecture series, which we are holding in cooperation with the Rhineland-Palatinate State Library Center:
