The main purpose of the training was to provide the audience with information on the activities implemented by CARD during the past 3-4 years in the scope of “Dairy Herd Management” project.

CARD together with the partner organization, provided the specialists with 360 doses of bovine semen of “Brown Swiss” dairy breed to stimulate advanced AI processes.
