Dairy training and focus groups with farm women



Ken carried out two training sessions at dairies during the past two days and Teresa did focus groups with 10 farm women at each dairy to find out their perspective.
At the Lunuru Dairy there were over 100 dairy farmers in attendance. Almost ¾ were women. The farmers kept coming and coming!!
At the Ex Lawa dairy there were over 50 farmers and over half were women. They were especially interested in getting alfalfa seed to grow alfalfa to feed their dairy cows. In the highlands they can grow alfalfa!
