The Fondation Digger (Digger DTR) in Tavannes, Switzerland, is a non-profit that builds humanitarian demining machines: it began as an association in 1998 and became a foundation in 2003.
Its flagship is the remote-controlled D-250 with a 250 hp John Deere engine, deployed according to the foundation in some 17 countries including Chad, Sudan, Angola and Cambodia; in August 2023 one unit went to Ukraine under a Swiss aid package worth 1.2 million CHF.
The website digger.ngo showed only a title on 17 October 2026, so data come from the GICHD equipment catalogue, training material and press reports.
