D-MTEC experts engage with issues that affect society, the economy and business. The D-MTEC Media Update provides links to recent articles, interviews and commentaries. Robert Finger, Professor of Agricultural Economics and Policy, proposes a holistic pesticide policy, that encompasses the various actors along the food value chain. Gudela Grote, Professor of Work and Organisational Psychology, shows with the Swiss HR Barometer that job satisfaction decreases with digitisation.
