Two-way learning channel!!
What an interesting day, I am currently out
in the Western area of Abu Dhabi (Liwa),
And I have been privileged with
accompanying the Farmers Services Centre with their daily operations.
The roles of Farmers Service Centre, that I
have been witness to have involved, but not limited to, Education, Improving
sustainability, Improving farm productivity, Research and Development, and the
list goes on.
And today I was able to take part and also
contribute to a Forage and Fodder workshop that was in the region.
The workshop was an excellent opportunity
that brought me even more up to speed, with the issues that agriculture in the
U.A.E faces.
It was also an opportunity for myself to
explain how hay (fodder) is produced in the Southern areas of Australia, and
the process’ that are involved to export to countries such as the U.A.E.
As Australian hay is widely used in this
area. As well as hay from the U.S.A, Canada, Spain and Egypt.
I feel I learnt as much at the workshop, as
I gave!
And I would like to thank the Farmers
Services Centre for making it possible.
