The Dutch and Russian dairy industries signed a Memorandum of Understanding during Prime Minister Rutte’s visit to Russia. Part of this MoU involves establishing a model dairy farm for 650 dairy cows in Dmitrov, outside of Moscow.
Wageningen UR (Livestock Research and LEI) has developed a plan for this model farm and will be responsible for further guidance.
