TOMSK, 6 Sep – RIA Tomsk. The founder of the CowSignals Training Company Joep Driessen will tell Tomsk farmers how to understand the body language of cows and how to use the information correctly to make managerial decisions, the RIA Tomsk was told in the agrarian center of the Tomsk region.
According to the information of the agrarian center, a three-day course of lectures by an expert from the Netherlands, Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Joep Driessen is held in Tomsk. The founder of the CowSignals Training Company will conduct training seminars "Cow Signals" for specialists of Tomsk dairy complexes and farms responsible for the reproduction of the herd.
"The expert will tell how to understand the body language of cows to improve healthy productivity and how to use the information correctly to make managerial decisions", – is said in the report.
As Joep Driessen told RIA Tomsk himself, he worked in 70 countries around the world and concluded that in each country there are only 1% of farmers who do their job well and are role models, but usually these farmers do not share with others their experience.
"We believe that it is necessary to invest in farmers training, the better they understand the cow, the better the business goes. The main problems that are absolutely everywhere: cows do not have enough soft couches, they need a large space with straw for calving and each cow needs an individual space for feeding, it's own stern table", – the expert said.
According to the data of the agrarian center, on Friday, at the training center for dairy cattle-breeding in the village of Yagodnoye in the Asinovsky district, at the production site of the new milk complex, LLC "Sibirskoye Moloko", Joep Driessen will introduce the participants to the aspects of stress-free keeping of animals in the herd, and also teach the reduction of the cost of livestock reproduction, including in the cultivation of highly productive young animals.
