This June we were planning on traveling with a group of students to learn more about agriculture in Denmark as we did in June of 2019. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 this, along with other study abroad courses, has been cancelled. If you have been following our social media platforms you have noticed we have virtually been exploring the globe over the past couple of days. In response to our virtual travels Karolina Sikala from the Green Academy in Aarhus, Denmark shared several videos with us. Our post this week will highlight one of the videos she shared from the Danish Agriculture and Food group. Utilize the discussion points below to guide your conversations around the globe.
Dairy Barn Equipment and Welfare
Discussion Points
- What are your main takeaways from the video and why?
- How would you compare practices showcased in this video from Denmark compared to how things are done in your home region? Compare and contrast to other parts of the world as well.
- Why is it important (or not important) in agriculture to explore how agriculture and farming practices differ and/or are similar around the world? Can this practice of learning how things are done differently or similarly around the globe be carried over to areas outside of agriculture?
