The Impact of Corona The enormous impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is overwhelming. One way or another, the outbreak reaches everyone, anywhere. Now we realize more than ever that globalization also has its downside.

Therefore, I feel a deep respect for all the healthcare providers and I believe we should give them a great digital standing ovation. Every country in the world is fighting its own battle against this unpredictable and invisible enemy. I am sure that we can win ...

Yesterday a group of international students from Van Hall Larenstein University of Applied Sciences visited Bles Dairies Farm. The tour was given by Nynke Dijkstra and Junior Business Developer Robert Horst. They showed and explained how this high tech dairy farm strives to combine all relevant elements regarding milk production. Examples of these elements are animal welfare, biodiversity, climate and profitability. More practical, how to combine agro-environmental schemes with a high productive dairy farm. After the tour, it was time to explain Bles Dairies’ vision towards a more sustainable / circular dairy value chain. Issues like license-to-produce, societal acceptance, and ...

Last week, Bles Dairies expert Anne Terpstra was in Nigeria, visiting various dairy farms that are part of the FDOV Nigeria project. He checked the recently arrived heifers for pregnancy with a scanner that he brought with him.

These are farms that will play an exemplary role to improve the Nigerian dairy sector. Unfortunately, too many heifers appeared to be not pregnant, which caused for disappointment amongst the farmers. With this training, that certainly needs a follow-up; ...
