Client case - Goat farming
Client:
Hansketien Goat FarmRespondent: Ina Eleveld, co-owner of Hansketien Goat Farm
"Organic goat farming has really benefited from knowledge exchange between goat farmers. Obviously the goat farmers themselves have accomplished this, but the Louis Bolk Institute has played a vital coordinating role in this process. The Louis Bolk Institute has a clear focus on the needs of organic farmers. They organize farm visits and demonstrations, allow us to tap into their knowledge network, and so on. Their practical focus leads to tangible results. Thanks to the support of the Louis Bolk Institute, our goat farming business is growing and the popularity of goat meat increasing. Due to collaborative efforts the quality of the goat farming sector as a whole is also improving. As for improvement points, I suggest that some of their projects could be run a bit more efficiently. Be that as it may, it is good to have a single organisation that can help you with all your questions related to organic agriculture. And if they don't know the answer, they'll know where to refer you."
