István Tresó, head of K&H Bank's agricultural development department, explained that half of the agricultural companies spent more than 10% of their income on innovation in the last two years, and the agrarian sector spent an average of 17%.
Further, 48% of the companies introduced a new or significantly improved product or service in the last two years.
Tresó pointed out that since 2020, 53% of the companies have primarily purchased modern, advanced machinery or equipment, and 33% spent almost the same amount on software purchases, automation, and in-house R&D activities.
