I found the program today to be very informative and Fun. I learned a lot about farming, both in the Netherlands and throughout the world. This day was a fantastic experience and I enjoyed getting out of the city!
It was very comforting to see that dairy farming in Uganda has a very good opportunity to choose the direction of investment and development of organic farming.
This has made me look at dairy with a different eye.
Nice experience. Interesting to learn new ways how Dutch farmers are thinking differently and making money in their own way. The excursion was quite informative – and what works especially for developing countries is to change our perception and critically think what works for us, instead of replication all the information
I enjoyed that we took the time to learn about farming and the history, and then got to go and see the actual farm working.
I enjoyed the day. Learnt a lot about the Dutch dairy system. Impressed by how much knowledge the farmer has. Motivated to go back home and review my lecture notes as a university teacher, and looking forward to creating positive change in my country through the knowledge acquired.
Though this program was awesome! Very educational and engaging. Excellent program.
It was a really nice experience. I was very surprised that you are basically telling us to consider the local knowledge and traditional practices when adapting dairy programs. Quite often what we hear is ‘the best practices are always in developed countries’. Would like to collaborate with you in the future.
Excellent experience! This farm tour was generally much better than I expected. If I’m being honest, I did not have a major interest in farming, but I am so glad I came today, because it was very informative and engaging. Plus the food was delicious!
The program broadened my perspectives and helped educate myself regarding organic farming as well as the world coming together for food.
