The general goal of the project was to establish cross-border cooperation in the field of agriculture, to enable the exchange of expert know-how and experiences, and to improve the quality of milk through life-long education of farmers. The cross-border cooperation was implemented through cooperation with the Agricultural and Forestry Institute Ptuj and farmers from Slovenia which ultimately results in an exchange of expert know-how, experience and examples of good practices regarding hygiene in milk production as implemented in the EU. The target group consisted of 120 farmers stock breeders from the County of Koprivnica-Krizevci, involved in the project implementation through educational workshops and field trips. Project activities: 12 educational workshops for farmers; individual consultations with farmers; three field trips to milk farms (in Croatia and abroad) with the aim of familiarizing farmers with good hygiene practices in milk production; compiling a Guide to Good Hygiene Practice and an Instruction Manual for Farmers.
