College Lecturers Day

The RABDF College Lecturers Day is specifically designed to bring college lecturers up to speed with current topical issues in the dairy sector. It is hoped that not only the lecturers will benefit from attending, but also the future generation of dairy farmers they teach.

The 2010 RABDF College Lecturers Day was held on Wednesday 3rd February 2010 at South Staffordshire College, Rodbaston Campus.

More than 18 delegates representing 11 agricultural colleges located throughout the UK were brought up to speed with the latest developments in the dairy sector at the Royal Association of British Dairy Farmers’ annual college lecturers day, this year hosted by the South Staffordshire College, Rodbaston Campus. The event, specifically designed for agricultural lecturers, featured a series of presentations examining the current challenges facing the dairy industry.
